A Little About Me
When I’m not behind the lens, you can find me camping under the stars, playing basketball, or exploring new trails in the Rockies. Traveling to over 20 countries has enriched my storytelling, and I’m passionate about bringing that perspective into my work. Fun fact: I still get butterflies before every wedding, but that excitement fuels my creativity!
