I’m 26 years old, grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area, and have a background in neuroscience and philosophy. I studied both at Claremont McKenna College and conducted research in neuroscience labs at Stanford and UCSF. I've been traveling full-time since early 2022.
Many of the most deeply moving experiences I’ve had have been while alone in remote wilderness with a camera. I hope the pages on my website give some insight into this and offer a little bit of inspiration to seek your own meaningful experiences, whether or not nature or photography are involved. While learning photography can be a nearly endless pursuit, the single best piece of advice I could give is to simply fill the frame with what you like. Everything else is secondary, in my opinion. I've written about some of these secondary things here and here. A list of the gear I use can be found here. I offer 1-on-1 mentoring sessions where I'll teach you everything I know about creating compelling images.
