About

Onboard Reporter, Photographer, Videographer

I grew up on the coast of Maine where the smell of the ocean was never far away. My blue water experience began aboard tall ships, sailing from Mexico to Hawaii and from Boston to Key West, before many years of sitting behind a computer.

A career in graphic design, web development, and digital marketing has been linked to the sea, through long-term contracts with two sailing based non-profits and in support of a Vendée Globe campaign. The common thread: capturing the experience of being offshore and communicating that story through the distribution of multi-media content.

I am seeking new opportunities to serve as an onboard reporter. I am most fulfilled when collaborating with a mission based organization.

  • Rare sighting on the other side of the camera lens, working the foredeck. 📸: @the_boathouse_at_hereford
  • Was focused on drone piloting for the start of the @idalewisdistancerace so had to make do with my iPhone while I waited for the double handed class to come by.
  • I think I’ve discovered who has been eating our peaches! #wildlifephotography #wildnature #wildanimals #whitetaildeer #naturephotography #natureshots #naturephoto #sonyaiv
  • Some shots of the USCG Eagle during today’s parade of sail. #tallships #tallshipsportsmouth #tallshipsportsmouthnh #uscgeagle #woodislandlighthouse #woodislandlifesavingstation #fortfostermaine
  • Some of my favorite shots from the start of the Bermuda Short-Handed Return race, for several boats that also participated in the @bermudarace. Grateful to the race committee for inviting me aboard their boat to snap images and live-stream the start for @sail_for_epilepsy.
