Thank you for visiting my website. It is a selection of photographs I took on my journeys to over 130 countries. At the age of nineteen, I first traveled around the world by myself, staying in Asia, Africa, and Latin America months at a time. In my early twenties, I started traveling to troubled places like Yemen, and Afghanistan, and discovered lands of remarkable beauty. I hope the photos convey this and show a different side to these countries.

Through photography, I seek to capture connections to the natural world, to people and animals. When taking portraits, I try to capture moments of authenticity and emotional honesty.

In 2008, I moved to San Francisco and majored in photography at an art college. Later, I studied Anthropology and Psychology. I graduated with a degree in Anthropology from the University of California (UCLA) and received a Master of Science degree in Psychological Science from the University of Limerick, Ireland.
