I am a photographer based in Southern California.

Previously, I worked at a newspaper for eight years, before I woke up one morning and realized I was broke, and that working at a newspaper was the reason. So now I make my money elsewhere, and freelance when I feel like it.

My work has been honored by International Photography Awards, NPPA Best of Photojournalism, Atlanta Photojournalism Seminar and Renaissance Photography Prize, among others.

I surf a lot. Hike when I can. Love to travel. My goal is to live to be a thousand years old, not because I'm afraid of dying, but because I want to see everything there is to see, do everything there is to do.

Thanks for visiting.
