I am currently a Staff Photojournalist at the Midland Daily News in Midland, Michigan and am a 2008 graduate of the University of Missouri with a Bachelor of Journalism and an emphasis in photojournalism.  In 2007, I spent seven months in Denmark photographing and studying at the Danish School of Journalism in Århus, Denmark.  I was born in Boston, moved to Rhode Island, Virginia, Hawaii, California, back to Virginia, Missouri, Denmark, and now I call Michigan home.
