    My Story


    6848017-M.jpg

    A Fulbright teaching exchange to Scotland in the early nineties ignited a passionate and insatiable curiosity about the world, meeting new people, and experiencing the unknown.

    It was a life-changing adventure that led me to, six years later, at the age of 35, with no qualifications other than a traveler’s eye and a knack for telling a tale, to trade teaching and mathematics for writing and photography. In 1998, I took the plunge, and did what many of us  dream of doing: I traded a successful academic career for the wild blue yonder and set out to explore the world and myself. In the decade since that intrepid decision, I’ve turned passion into profession, journeying to more than 60 countries in search of evocative images and life-enriching adventures.

    Today, I continue to criss-cross the globe committed to creating vivid photography and compelling story-telling designed to inspire readers to pick up and go and live the adventure firsthand.
