Born and raised in Rochester, NY

I grew up spending my summers  in the Adirondacks, sleeping under the stars and making amazing

memories. Those experiences 

shaped my love for the earth

beneath my feet and the people around the campfire. 

I  have one of those fancy bachelor's degrees from the Rochester Institute of  

Technology majoring in

photographic and imaging 

arts. I honestly couldn't have seen myself getting any other kind of education. once I picked up that first camera almost ten years ago I haven't been able

to put it down! 

When I'm not behind the camera you can find me in my Jeep [aka Bruce], enjoying a good read, lovin' on literally any dog within view, getting drinks with my ladies, walking aimlessly around target or just enjoying the sunshine.

I just recently adopted a new fish

[as seen below] and for obvious reasons, I'm obsessed. His legal name is Pork Bun but his people call him Puff Daddy. So far the larger one of the two (Pudge) has decided not to eat him and Im hopeful    this tolerance will last.
