Who I am

I enjoy photography, videography, image and video editing, and graphic design. I have spent many years traveling in search of a place I belonged. I have traveled all over the United States. I took a brief tour of Canada. I had an unforgettable trip to Brazil where I experienced the city of Sao Paulo. I also explored more remote regions in the jungle. I finally landed here on the beautiful Olympic Peninsula in Washington state. My adventurous spirit desires to see more of the world. Yet, I am happy to call the Olympic Mountains my home.

There is so much beauty here on the Olympic Peninsula. We have beautiful Pacific Coast Ocean beaches, wondrous Rainforest, and adventurous mountains. Nestled in this amazing landscape, we find a wide diversity of animals. There are also birds and aquatic species. You will discover charming towns and beautiful countryside. The landscape features majestic lakes, and it has flowing rivers and creeks. This is truly an outdoors enthusiast paradise. I eagerly look ahead to showcasing the beauty of this area in my photography and video.

I also enjoy helping others to create beautiful photography, video, and graphic designs. Please reach out to me if you have any questions or would like to schedule a photography or video event. I have the knowledge, experience, and equipment to bring your vision to life.
