After over 20 years of working as freelance photojournalist, I made a significant professional move, taking on a non profit leadership role at Mill Falls Charter School, New Hampshire's first public Montessori. The school is now in its 8th year of operation and has been a passion project of mine since the idea of bringing Montessori into the public sector here in my adopted home state of NH was first born in 2011. I served as Founding Board Chair for several years, and worked as the interim school administer twice before stepping into the position permanently. The school offers a full K-6 program to 168 NH students.I have spoken extensively about the founding and workings of the school, sharing our experiences with the NH Legislature, members of Leadership NH and in a TEDx Talk in 2013, among many other venues. I am honored to be working side-by-side with our talented and committed staff and Board of Trustees in support of our wonderful students and families in our authentic Montessori setting. As a freelance photographer, I have focused on issues of health and social welfare. Having spent most of that time living in NYC, a great deal of my work involved stories that unfolded in the metropolitan area. I published 2 books of my own, exhibited my projects around the country, and worked on many books and exhibitions collaboratively. One of my books is Anatomy of Anatomy (2000) which explores the training of medical students, and a second is Primarily New Hampshire (2004) which follows the lives of over 30 young people during the 2003/4 First in the Nation Primary. I have extensive experience photographing in the medical/health care arena, as well as in the political domain. I specialize in in-depth story telling through images and words, though I also enjoy the opportunity to shoot brief assignments.From 2006 - 2015, I was an adjunct faculty member at Southern New Hampshire University where I taught visual story telling, a course I developed during my seven years of teaching at the School of Visual Arts in NYC.
