Born and raised on the farmlands of Central Pennsylvania, I spent much of my life outdoors—hunting, fishing, trapping, and exploring the woods, fields, and mountains near my home. Over time, I became uncomfortable capturing or killing wildlife, so I traded in my weapons for backpacking and photography gear. I quickly fell in love with both pursuits, and in 2023, I hiked the 3,000-mile Continental Divide Trail. Since then, I have devoted my time to writing and nature photography. In 2025, I moved to Colorado for its hiking and photography opportunities. I now enjoy trekking to remote locations with my camera to photograph the state’s scenery and wildlife. I value every part of the process, from early-morning starts and capturing moments with my camera to time in the field and editing and sharing my images. My goal is to capture ordinary yet beautiful moments in nature—whether wildlife, landscapes, macro subjects, or abstract scenes—and to present them as true as possible to the visual and emotional aspects of the scene. I am grateful for this opportunity in life and for you, my friends and followers, for all your support and encouragement. I hope you will enjoy my images as much as I enjoy creating them
