I grew up in the foothills of Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley, where I spent most weekends camping in the woods.

Somewhere along the way, I picked up a camera and realized a passion for capturing the beauty of nature while on these camping trips.  In college, I studied cinematography and DP’d 4 short films, some of which went on to show at film festivals across the US and earn recognition.

Nowadays, I live in Winston-Salem, NC and spend my free time planning road trips to sights unseen, shooting lifestyle portraitures and DP’ing independent films.  My aspirations are to continue testing my creativity behind the lens and see as much of this world as possible while I’m still young and curious.
