Bio

I have been working as a photojournalist since 1999. Currently I am based in Washington, DC. I am educated in history. I have worked with newspapers, magazines, agencies, and other media outlets. Over the years I have covered many subjects and stories locally, domestically, and internationally. Covering elections, general news, disasters, sports, and conflict has left me with a rich collection of experiences to draw upon. These experiences, combined with technical knowledge, give me the ability to work and report in nearly every situation around the world.
