My travels have taken me from the Andes Mountains in Patagonia to the canals of Venice to the beaches of Thailand to the streets of Tokyo. During my year abroad, I realized that my passion for travel and for photography are inextricably linked. Seeing the world through my lens has added a new perspective that shapes me not only as a photographer but also as a person. The people I have met along the way and the relationships I have formed inspire me to tell their incredible stories.
