About

Born in Philadelphia. At home in the wild.

I photograph the quiet drama of wild, remote places—landscapes shaped by ice, wind, and time. My work often centers stillness and scale: a cloud shadow sliding across a mountainside, a single bloom blazing in a field of dust, a falcon circling into silence.

I'm drawn to natural textures—lichened bark, fractured rock, feather, bone—and the small lives that move through them.

When I’m not making photographs, I’m writing. I’m the author of No One Crosses the Wolf (2022), a memoir hailed for its clarity, courage, and lyricism. My essays and short stories appear widely, and I teach creative writing at a university in Texas. My work across genres is driven by a deep attention to place and a belief in the power of witness.

I’m also channeling my geopolitical anxieties into a growing series of mixed-media paintings—raging, layered pieces that speak a different visual language but stem from the same restless need to look closely and respond.

I’m available for editorial assignments, collaborative projects, and commissions. I split time between Fort Worth, TX, and field work elsewhere.
