I am a freelance photographer in Northwest Arkansas hoping to eventually secure a job at a nature publication, conservation group, or other non-profit or human-rights based institution. I’m also available for commercial work, travel photography, and portraiture, both domestic and abroad. Would you like to make that happen?

My interest in photography began in high school when my uncle gave me an old 35mm SLR and I won a photo contest judged by renowned Arkansas nature photographer Tim Ernst. The rest is, as they say, history.

My earliest published work was in the award-winning Fayetteville High School Literary Magazine Connotations, Volumes XXII and XXIII (cover). I was on staff of The Arkansas Traveler newspaper for all four years of my undergraduate career, and was published on the cover of the Weddings with Style international magazine. In 2009, I placed 9th in the international National Geographic/World Nomads Travel Photography Scholarship.

I am pursuing biological/natural/cultural photography as both a profession and a life goal, and hope to help revitalize peoples’ love for the natural world and for cultures besides their own–a love that seems to have been lost in today’s society. If I leave a mark on this world, it better be a good one.
