Marketing Director & Photographer rooted in the Pacific Northwest

I'm a native Oregonian who spent seven years in the Arizona desert before the Pacific Northwest pulled me back for good. That time away sharpened two things: my passion for the Northwest landscape, and my certainty that I belong somewhere green.

Today I'm the Marketing Director at Iseli Nursery in Boring, Oregon, a role that brings together my MLA, fifteen years of photography, and a genuine love of plants. I handle the photography, social media, website, and catalog, and I'm still learning something new about conifers and maples every week.

Thanks @chrisfairleyphotography for a great suggestion. Hood River is beautiful this time of year. I missed the fruit tree blooms again, but there's always something nice to see out here. #hoodriver #columbiarivergorge #mthoodterritory #oregonexplor
The gorge is such a vibrant place this time of year before the heat of summer sets in. Its amazing how much life springs up in these hills. #cascadiaexplored #portlandnw
I've always loved this dramatic viewpoint. The cliffs seem otherworldly. #pnwadventures #oregoncoast #cascadiaexplored
I spent a day on the Oregon Coast to clear my head and take a break from the news. Nature always has a way of making me feel a little better if only for a day.
Its always nice to get out in the woods. I went on a nice loop hike with family at Latourell Falls followed by lunch at Cascade Locks. Great conversation, sights, and food. Pic 5 is me and my cousin Anna. . . . . #oregonexplored #pnw #portlandnw #you
