PERSONAL STATEMENT:

A self-taught photographer with military and humanitarian experience, student of politics, conflict, cultures and the world. My photography seeks to explore the lighter and darker natures of humanity in such trying conditions through a lens. Professional experiences, academic work and my photography all bring depth to one another, each enhancing the other. From the fields of Catterick Garrison, military institutions of Charleston, indigenous villages in the Amazon, occupied government buildings in Bangkok and the insurgency of the southern provinces, to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. I’ve been fortunate enough to cross through many places and experiences many different aspects of humanity. I try to document the world around me as I see it.
