I went to college wanting to become a mechanical engineer, but ended up graduating with a degree in photojournalism.
I did an internship at the local paper, went to Eddie Adams, didn't move to New York, and started shooting for a bunch of publications here in San Francisco. Got married along the way and am now learning how to put my kids to bed early so I can fire up my PS4 for once. I still get carded frequently and love to geek out on maps.
Working for some of the world's leading publications and wire services over the past decade has trained me to adapt and shoot efficiently and effectively while on the run. I am equally comfortable in the studio and at wildfires; at weddings and riots; popping a lot of strobes or going available; working solo or with a full-blown crew. I am currently a staff photographer at the San Francisco Chronicle and the love of pursuing a good story continues.
