Bio

I am a middle school teacher and travel photographer from Australia. As a photographer I am passionate about people, religion, and texture. I believe photography is a powerful tool for cultural preservation and education, and for highlighting that, despite our surface-level differences, people are more alike than different. I'm captivated less by beauty and more by moments of juxtaposition, like boys in Iraq playing football amongst the rubble, Buddhist monks in Thailand doom-scrolling on their phones, or a Day of the Dead dancer taking a moment to sit down and catch their breath.
