Welcome

I am a photojournalist specializing in issues encompassing ecology, conservation, and natural history.

My background in biology has provided me with a profound understanding of the scientific world and the wonders it has revealed. However, through years of working in the field with communities and local organizations to conserve or protect endangered species, I realized that the transfer of scientific knowledge into practice was lacking. Not particularly the efforts of the work, but the efficiency of a proven scientific plan transferred to (the people in) an area.

With one foot in the academic world and one out in the field, I hope my photos can connect the two and give a voice to scientists, conservationists, or the local community working to protect the rapidly declining and immensely important natural world.
