“My desire for adventure, storytelling and creating personal connections with my subject matter drives my work. I believe Photography and storytelling is a powerful medium to communicate the natural world and also serves as an important catalyst to connect you, the viewer, with the incredible planet I have fallen in love with. Art opens the empathy door, inviting you in to a world you may not have explored or to a place in your mind you have not investigated. Art helps to provoke feeling and passion, which I believe is the foundation to taking the first steps into anthropogenic consciousness.“
