From Missoula, Montana, an everlasting winter not-so-wonderland, to the scorching Phoenix heat, I have not only experienced a dramatic spectrum of weather but different cultures alike. Growing up in a rural town my childhood consisted of a vast appreciation for nature and simplicity; however, my life in the suburbs have graced me with many opportunities previously unknown to me. In my free time you can catch me at the gym kickboxing or reading literally anything. I absolutely love the outdoors whether it is hiking, skiing, biking, you name it! Photography is my art, my muse, because I love its versatility as an art and an expression. Travel for me is not simply a vacation, but a way of life. No matter how far you go, any new city or country adds to your own perspective on life and overall broadens your character and knowledge. I am thrilled to experience a new way of life apart from my own learning about the culture, people, and especially the food!
