A few things that set me apart:

• I’ve been shooting since 2017, when I got my first camera to capture my hike from Canada to Mexico on the Continental Divide Trail.

• In 2018, I set out with a compass and a stack of maps to hike the Hayduke, 800 miles from Arches to Zion. This route showed me places around Moab and southern Utah I never would have thought to explore, and I try to imbue my work with this sense of exploration.

• I worked as a hiking and archaeology guide in Moab and in the national parks.

• Now, I move between Utah and Wyoming, where my partner guides on the Snake River in Grand Teton National Park.

• I’m a wilderness EMT.

• I also work as a copywriter for evo, take photos for Patagonia, and write hiking, travel, and gear guides (like this giant Moab guide!).

• I grew up in Chicago and Columbus, OH; when I go back east now, I visit family in Louisville, KY.

• My general life looks like: working, biking, running, backcountry skiing, rafting, baking pies or sourdough, reading, hanging out with my cats (Worm and Zuzu), and traveling around in my old Four Wheel Camper.
