I've been beaten and bruised by love but I am still a believer. I am a photographer & a travel writer. And a lover of adventure. I am a sister, daughter and a friend. I am currently based in the Midwest but in the process of moving to New York City. Along the way I'll be traveling the US and some of Europe. I'm booking for 2011 all over the USA with jobs already in 4 states. When I'm not planning my next trip or taking photographs and writing stories...I am usually reading, cooking, or soaking up quality time with my family and friends who are [sadly] scattered to the four winds. I do all this with a soundtrack and my iPhone close at hand!

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." ~ Mark Twain

I also love to give back and am constantly on the look out for charities to support. Currently, I buy Toms Shoes and I give to Charity: Water. These are such a simple things: shoes and clean water. Yet so many are without them around the world. We can all help! Won't you join me?

"Photography, fortunately, to me has not only been a profession but also a contact between people - to understand human nature and record, if possible, the best in each individual." ~ Nickolas Muray
