About

I grew up in Munich, Germany and moved to the United States when I was ten years old. In Europe, I experienced the outdoors from hikes in the Alps and was always fascinated by the exotic animals in the zoo. This interest in wildlife increased once I realized the amount of wilderness America has to offer.

Wildlife became my passion and I studied behavioral ecology at the University of California at Santa Cruz to further my knowledge about animals. While at the university I started to combine my love of wildlife with photography, an activity I learned from my dad.

My current mission is to showcase the beauty and intricacies of nature while highlighting the critical need for more conservation efforts through my images. I love to photograph and experience the animals I see and want to share these stories through my images. This, I hope, will inspire you to help fight for the conservation of these amazing creatures.
