Hello!
I'm a freelance photographer based in Seattle, WA. I graduated from Dartmouth College in 2025 with a degree in Studio Art and Art History and a dedication to wildlife conservation and environmental protection.
I grew up hiking in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest, where I developed an ardent appreciation for nature’s staggering beauty and its ability to revitalize those who traverse the trails. During these years, I started photographing landscapes and the plethora of diverse creatures that inhabit them.
While in college, I worked as a Photography Intern for Dartmouth’s Office of Communications and as a staff photographer for The Dartmouth, America’s oldest college newspaper. I also freelanced various events and served as the Historian and Photographer for the Dartmouth College Wind Ensemble, which traveled to Mexico City on tour in 2023 to perform in celebration of 200 years of diplomatic relations between Mexico and the United States. I am a North American Nature Photography Association (NANPA) Scholar, and I hold the position of 2024-25 Curatorial Fellow and 2025-26 Residential Life Art Fellow at Dartmouth College.
My work has been featured in The Seattle Times Pacific NW Magazine; used by CNN World, and displayed in Nearburg Gallery’s Embodied Memory (2023), Maximalism (2024), and Transience & Permanence (2025) exhibitions. My photos are also visible on various bus shelters across Seattle through a partnership with Photographic Center Northwest and King County Metro to expand the vibrant local public art scene.
