The Tool
I use the tool of photography to engage people in taking deeper dives into their current environments by encouraging authentic curiosity, artistic expression and travel education. As a professional photographer, the art of photography is practiced, cultivated and discussed so that students experience the full integration of an experience that last a lifetime. Merging the natural world with the technologies of photo making, we learn, make mistakes, find solutions and slowly understand environmental psychology to better maneuver everyday life.
