This website is a chance for me to share my photography and travels with friends, family, and interested parties alike. From wandering around my house, camp, and early travels with disposable cameras to my current habit of lugging heavy lenses wherever I go, photography has served as a (sometimes more reliable) memory bank. Capturing my experiences has been a compelling way for me to recall what I have been drawn to (especially looking back at my early years) and compare my perspective with others'. Since my first international experience, I have been privileged to travel around the world and throughout the U.S. for school, work, and pleasure. This has served to feed my desire to learn more about people and places around the globe and in my own neighborhood. It has also laid the foundation for me to reflect on my own positionality as I become a more reflexive traveler.

The Roof of the World

I have some things to say since my arrival in Tibet, many of which involve going into the no-go zone of politics. But since I would like to be allowed back into China in the future, I need to be careful about what I put on the internet and will withhold my thoughts. Instead, here are a few images of the beautiful places and people of Tibet.
