I began with a childhood interest in photography and slowly saw it take shape as a love for journalism through my experiences in high school and eventually at the University of Oregon's School of Journalism and Communication.
As I grow to understand storytelling more and more through this medium, I cannot help but love it more for the places it takes me, the people I meet and the experiences it allows me.
I am originally from Portland, Ore., but am currently working in Palm Springs, Calif., after a six-year stay in the Midwest that started with coverage of the 2016 Iowa Caucuses.
Perhaps my favorite part of the career is being able to put myself where I may not necessarily belong to observe, learn and document.
When I am not working on a story, I hope to be outdoors, snowboarding, hiking, camping or working on a project in the garage.
Let's chat.
