Hellllllo and welcome! I am originally from Chicago (grew up in Naperville, IL) but am now lucky to call San Diego my home.

I played insanely competitive volleyball most of my life and earned a D1 scholarship in the process (All-American circa 1999, Member of 1000 kill club – WOOT). I have a love for all things food and love exploring the city one restaurant at a time. I am a travel junkie with a thirst for exploring completely new and unknown places.

However, when I am not traveling or photographing the cutest kiddos around, I work full-time as the Senior Graphic Designer for the Birch Aquarium at Scripps. I love that my entire day consists of creativity! I laugh a lot, I rarely cry and my day is NOT complete until I have had at least one piece of chocolate.

Things I love:

• Hiking, biking, playing in the sunshine.
• Planning trips, travel adventures. I love every bit of the planning process.
• Watching the sunrise or sunset.
• My dog, Willow – a 28 lb mini labradoodle. She is my world. 
• Seasons: Buuuuut I really love Autumn weather. Crisp breeze, chill in the air.
• Tall boots, bulky scarves and big earrings
• Chocolate. I mean… seriously, it’s wrong how much I love the stuff.
• Pictures of my dad. I TREASURE them. But mostly he’s a huge reason why I got into photography. THIS is why I love photography and choose to do this in addition to my full-time job.
