As a photojournalist at the Omaha World-Herald, I have covered a wide variety of assignments, including the Nebraska and Iowa National Guard's deployments in Afghanistan, Husker football at home and away, portraits of wigs big and small and stories ranging from rodeo queen competitions to intimate views of every day life and love.
Most recently, I have developed the World-Herald photo staff's blog Viewfinder. Follow our work on twitter @OWHpictures and on our Viewfinder Facebook page.
While a student, I completed internships at The Palm Beach Post, the Toledo Blade and the Newport News Daily Press. I've worked as an assistant at Malone and Co., a commercial photography studio, where I was schooled in the art of lighting. I also photograph weddings, which I find to be very rewarding.
