I’m a photographer and multimedia journalist based in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Crafting visual and audio narratives as well as long-format documentary projects–focused on people, place, and the intricacies of daily life–is my greatest passion and pleasure. I also really enjoy experimenting with audio stories and film. I’m also part of a commercial photo team at DUET.
I am available anywhere you would like to send me and am always looking for the slightest excuse to travel and capture stories.

"As a documentarian, I focus my efforts on the hero’s journey of the everyday individual within their community. I’m intrigued by real people, what happens at the intersection of identity, challenge and change, and the defining moments of the human experience. Documenting those dynamics requires me to approach subjects from a place of great intimacy, while not neglecting to leave room for the spontaneous."
