Howdy!

(Texas A&M University '19) Whoop!


As a 6th generation Texan and avid outdoorsman, I enjoy any opportunity to get outside, explore the Lone Star State, and capture the breathtaking views it has to offer. I've had the amazing opportunity to live and work in various parts of Texas, drive tons of back roads, and step foot in just about every corner of the state. Most of my free time is spent taking photos while hiking or camping and I make a point to schedule regular trips to the Hill Country and Big Bend regions. I love the vast, untouched landscapes; untamed, yet serene wildlife; dark skies with countless stars; and rural, rustic, historic settings. There is something captivating about the Texas experience and I enjoy sharing my cultural heritage through my photography. Of course, I occasionally travel outside of Texas and never miss an opportunity to photograph the grand landscapes and nature that the rest of North America has to offer.
