I am a Junior at Purdue University studying Wildlife, however am currently taking a semester abroad in beautiful Christchurch, New Zealand. I am primarily a still photographer specializing in Nature and Adventure Sports Photography, however I have recently discovered the marvel of Videography! In fact, I plan on applying to The Montana State Masters of Fine Arts in Science and Natural History Film-making program next year.

I have worked for the last year for the Purdue Exponent as a Staff Photographer covering everything from Football to Pulitzer Winning Authors.

I like to be over-prepared (thanks Boy Scouts!) for my assignments even if it means lugging 45lbs of camera equipment over rough terrain (again, thanks Boy Scouts!).

I enjoy Pino Noir, Irish Whiskey, and of course Rocky Road Ice Cream (but all at once - that might be a bit overkill). I have discovered Sweet Chili Sauce here in NZ and feel it will be the thing I miss most when I go home.
