Iā€™m a native Montanan, born in Kalispell, Montana and raised in Missoula, Montana. My love for the Montana outdoors helped to inspire my passion for art, design, and photography very early in my life.

I have been educated and trained in journalism, photography, media arts and graphic design, which have provided me with incredible opportunities.  

I was fortunate to intern at the Washingtonian Magazine and had the chance to assist in a photograph session with the late Senator John McCain. I attended the Obama Inauguration in 2008 and was able to spend time with the Washington National Baseball players at the RFK stadium in Washington D.C.  When I decided to return to Montana, I was befriended by a former vice chair of the Crow Tribe and was invited to participate and photograph a traditional sweat lodge ceremony. Ten people participated in the sweat, including a Texas preacher, who arrived, music blaring, in a yellow 70ā€™s Cadillac wearing a matching yellow suit and cowboy hat. These experiences were an honor.

I have over 17 years of working in the advertising, graphic design, media arts and photography field. This has provided me with amazing connections and relationships with people from an array of diverse backgrounds.  

I have acted as lead graphic designer on multiple publications, created advertising layouts, and completed countless photo shoots, including commercial, fashion, character, portrait, and wedding.

I continue to enjoy ongoing creativity in the field and the opportunity to assist individuals and businesses with their needs each day. 

I look forward to hearing from you and working for you and with you on any creative design projects or photo shoots.
