About
More than 20 years ago, I relocated to the Smoky Mountains and quickly developed a deep connection to the outdoors. From backpacking and camping to simply exploring the landscape, the mountains became both my playground and a continual source of inspiration.
In 2001, I joined the Gatlinburg Chamber of Commerce, where I eventually advanced to Director of Marketing. As digital marketing, online communications, and social media were just beginning to emerge, I became heavily involved in shaping content for these new platforms. The growing demand for strong visual storytelling naturally led me to photography, which soon became a passion.
Today, I serve as Vice President of Marketing and Public Relations for the Gatlinburg Convention and Visitors Bureau, promoting and showcasing Gatlinburg as the premier destination in the South. This site was created to share a collection of my work from the past 25 years—capturing the places, moments, and stories that define this remarkable area.
