Born and raised in Dubuque, Iowa, I grew up with a great appreciation for photography from my mother, an amateur photographer and my godfather, who was a professor of photography at Washburn College. With cameras always around, and receiving my first camera at 7, I gravitated to photography at an early age.
In 2008, I graduated from the University of Northern Iowa with a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Studio Art with an emphasis placed in Photography. Returning to Dubuque after college I was drawn to the scenery and architecture that I grew up around.
