I am a landscape astrophotographer based in Central Minnesota, USA.

I am an award-winning and exhibiting landscape and night sky photographer, whose Milky Way photography has been featured in national juried shows across the United States. I have traveled to and photographed many locations around the world both professionally and personally, and have extensive experience photographing landscapes and the wonders of the night sky in a wide variety of locations and conditions. Through the experiences of owning and running an advertising and design firm, and my formal training in graphic design, fine arts, and marketing, I have amassed an array of skills that allow me to apply both a technical and aesthetic approach to my work and that of my students. Born and raised in Wisconsin, I have spent the vast majority of my life in the outdoors exploring the deep Northwoods of the Midwest and the mountainous landscapes of Colorado while living on the Western Slope for many years, before returning to the dark skies of central Minnesota.
