ARTSITIC ADVENTURER

“Keep close to Nature's heart... and break clear away, once in awhile, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean”                                                                                                           ~ John Muir

In 2004 I went on a photography tour of the Palouse and thought, "How could I have lived in Washington my entire life and never heard about this incredible place." Then in 2010, I spent the entire summer capturing the region while documenting where all the 'best photographic spots' were. I created the Photographer's Map of the Palouse and began seriously touring others around the area. I say the Palouse is where my heart sings. Come take a tour with me, your heart will sing too.

I am an Oregon resident, however many days you will find me traveling somewhere, waking up to the most incredible places.

• Happiness is living up to my daughters believing, “My mom is awesome and she can do anything!”

• I am a vegan at home, a vegetarian when I eat out and grateful when others invite me for a home cooked meal. .

• One day I want to write an inspiring book about the adventurous journeys I have had.

• I rode a unicycle and a motorcycle to school.

• My sneezes claim to break ear drums, at least sometimes.

“There are only two ways to live your life.

One is as though nothing is a miracle.

The other is as though everything is a miracle.”
