Seasoned freelance writer & photographer focused on adventure and cultural themes for publications including Outside Magazine, Los Angeles Times, Surfer, National Geographic Adventure, Alaska Airlines Magazine, Alert Diver and Surfer's Journal. Skilled in capturing the essence and emotions of people, places and experiences through word and photography, whether spelunking ice caves in Alaska, visiting schools of the Kenni people on the Thai/Burma border, or swimming with humpback whales in Tonga, I immerse myself to uncover the stories that lie beneath.
