Photographer & photo editor based in New York City.
I’m a Philly native, hailing from the suburbs and moved to the city to attend the University of Pennsylvania, where I graduated with a BA in Fine Arts with a concentration in Photography. After graduation I worked as a staff intern photographer at the Philadelphia Inquirer.
I’ve completed my Masters Degree in Photojournalism and Documentary Photography at LCC UAL and currently reside in New York, where I’m a Senior Photo Editor at NBC News.
I also have a HEFAT certification.
As a Formula One enthusiast, I particularly enjoy photo editing those stories as we begin covering the sport more.
