My photographic work explores the evolving relationship between people, wild places, and the public lands we share. Through a documentary approach rooted in curiosity and connection, I create large‑scale color photographs that reveal the intimate, often overlooked intersections between humans and the natural world. In my long‑term project Managing Eden, and in my most recent series, Held in Trust: The Public Lands We Share, I examine conservation, stewardship, and the personal stories that shape our ties to these fragile landscapes.
My work has been exhibited nationally and internationally, supported by Guggenheim and Smithsonian Fellowships, and collected by institutions such as the Smithsonian American Art Museum and the Sheldon Museum of Art.
Alongside my creative practice, I have spent more than three decades as a photography educator and academic leader, committed to fostering inclusive, collaborative learning environments where emerging artists can discover their voice, vision, and power as image‑makers.
