About
Life moves me, and I try to capture it in the process: while biking, hiking, gathering with friends and family, exploring Chicago (& its kitchens!), New Orleans, Florida's coast, Arizona's desert or Wisconsin's woods and countryside... or simply cooking at home. Thanks for stopping by! Oh- and if you'd like me to capture life's moments for you, please contact me- I'd love to hear from you!
