Profile
I work in Outdoor Education and specialize in high ropes. The family joke is that I climb trees for a living. I love to get out there and explore, always making my world bigger through finding new things and meeting new people. Taking my camera with me lets me keep a journal of my adventures along the way. Urban Exploration (urbex) in particular has a special place in my heart. Stopping to look at the places and things abandoned by people and time, there is beauty in decay.

Hunting Salamanders in October
I didn’t think we’d find you with the chill wind, / the overcast sky dragging shadows across the lake / making the world look more than real. We’d walked for hours with runny nose…
Cliff Jumping (a sestina)
We’ve hiked for hours to reach this eyrie cliff, / but now at the top all I feel is paralyzing fear / as I lean over the edge, looking at the drop, / the height from which my friends all plan to…
Walk-In Closet
A six by five fortress Vacuumed vault of / bears and beads / and letters stored in / shoe boxes on shelves Metal and plastic hangs with / slender shoulders to / model me…
