Detroit, Michigan
Hi! I’m a full-time freelance photographer and photojournalist based in Detroit, Michigan. I specialize in reportage, portraits and photo essays for editorial and commercial clients. My work has taken me throughout the Midwest region and I am willing to travel.
At the core, I love connecting with people through photography. The connection I make with others is just as important to me as the photo that is made.
I'm an alumnus of Michigan State University, the Danish School of Media and Journalism (DMJX) and the Eddie Adams Workshop XXXI. During my studies, I interned with The Boston Globe, The Herald (Jasper, Ind.) and The Grand Rapids Press/MLive.com (Grand Rapids, Mich.)
