My interest in nature and wildlife phototgrapghy has been present since I was a child. Nearly five years ago, I took a 10,000 mile journey to several of US national Parks including the Grand Tetons, Redwoods, Zion, and Crater Lake . Upon happening upon "Images of Nature" in Jackson Hole, WY , a Thomas Mangelsen gallery, I was so moved by the images I decided to go about capturing them more arduously. My degrees are in Botany amd Zoology and I also coordinate renewable energy workshops. All this background gave me a wide appreciation for the natural world and a desire to show it to others and conserve it.
