Detroit, MI, USA
I’m a full-time freelance photographer and photojournalist based in Detroit, Michigan.
At the core, what I love about being a photographer is connecting with people. For me, the experience I have in connecting with others is just as important as the photo that is made. I approach storytelling through documentary photography and portraiture.
I'm an alumnus of Michigan State University, the Danish School of Media and Journalism (DMJX) and the Eddie Adams Workshop XXXI. Prior to freelancing, I interned with The Boston Globe, The Herald (Jasper, Ind.) and The Grand Rapids Press/MLive.com (Grand Rapids, Mich.)
