ABOUT ME

From the time I could hold a pen or paintbrush, I was creating. Art has always been at the core of who I am. Raised by two artist parents who encouraged constant expression, I developed a deep appreciation for visual storytelling early on.

Growing up, I moved around the world—each new country and culture shaping my perspective. I graduated high school in England, then relocated to California to attend the Academy of Art University in San Francisco.

Today, I’m a full-time Creative Director for Dakota Shy Winery and the Mavericks Awards, blending my passion for storytelling with the worlds of wine and big wave surfing. I also photograph major music festivals like BottleRock and Aftershock, and have recently expanded into producing short films.

I co-founded Be A Shark, an ocean-based adventure and education company. While we originally led expeditions to see great whites at Guadalupe Island, the island’s closure shifted our mission. Now, we focus on teaching people how we see and connect with sharks—and lead big animal ocean safaris across Mexico.

My shark photography has been published internationally and featured by outlets like Fox News, BBC, Newsweek, and The Daily Mail.

I love what I do, and I’m grateful for the wild, inspiring, and often humbling places this creative path continues to take me.
