I have been a photojournalist for the past 12 years, shooting a variety of assignments on deadline, working for daily newspapers in Southern California.
My interests are diverse, from capturing the Anaheim Ducks march through the Stanley Cup playoffs, to year long projects focusing on social issues. In 2007, I completed a 14-page special section on the homeless in the greater Los Angeles area, spending time living with a homeless 67 year old woman.
Back in 2000, I took a break from daily shooting to pursue a master's degree in anthropology. The experience developed my methods of documentary photography and the importance of a subjects voice in my work. Today, this shows in the passion I have for multimedia projects that incorporate still photography and audio for Internet publication.
Recently, I have begun freelancing in the global market and moved my base of operations stateside from Southern California to Boulder, Colorado and internationally to Buenos Aires, Argentina where I am currently pursuing various projects.
