I grew up in the Chicago area and graduated college from the University of Missouri. As long as I could remember, I had always dreamed of living in Colorado, riding and racing my bike, and living the outdoor life. So, after working a few years, I decided to leave everything, and I moved to Northern Colorado with whatever I could fit in my car, a couple hundred dollars, and the hope that I could make a life for myself. Fast forward a few decades and I'm still here, married, with two adult kids, two dogs, and a passion for the outdoors, cycling, skiing, and photography.


Many of my photos have won or been finalist in contests, been featured in calendars, hung in restaurants, used in travel websites, and been on the cover of local magazines. Please contact me for freelance photography work or to purchase a print. Thank you for visiting!
