For as long as I can remember, I was always interested in cars. I’d spent countless hours playing with toy cars or reading anything and everything I could find out about them. As I got older, I began wanting to make a career out of it, in whatever way possible. I used to think I would end up in engineering or automotive design, but turns out that was trickier than I imagined… Luckily, I also had a passion for photography and after honing my skills at The Creative Circus in Atlanta, a portfolio based school, I turned my enthusiasm into a career, specializing in capturing the beauty and power of cars. As a photographer at MotorTrend, I’ve had the privilege of working on numerous features and projects, showcasing many vehicles and helping share the stories of our highly talented editors. I’m grateful for my journey so far, and I hope to share my passion for cars through my images.
