I am a freelance photographer based in Southwest Florida for multiple publications and news outlets. My work has been featured in newspapers and magazines throughout the state and internationally through Zuma Press Wire Service. I was recognized by the Florida Media Association with a "Charlie Award" for best single image in a magazine in its market class in 2021-2022, and my photo essay on a boy's correctional camp was recently published in "International Lens Magazine." In my previous life, I sailed onboard R/V Knorr as a radio officer with Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.
