I was most recently the Managing Editor at Imaging Resource and am currently based in Atlanta, Georgia.I began my serious journey into the world of photography starting around 2007 while studying at Georgia Tech. Not long after getting a Nikon D80 -- my first "real camera" -- I joined The Technique, the Georgia Tech student newspaper. Initially I began as a photographer and found a love for the challenge of sports photography. I eventually joined the staff as Assistant News Editor, but continued handling some photographic assignments.My passion for photography continued after graduating in 2009 with an internship at a local newspaper, The Rockdale Citizen. This opportunity drew me into the world of "HD-DSLR video". At this time I switched over to a Canon 5D Mark II and 7D. Subsequently, I took on a full-time position as a multimedia producer at The Covington News and The Rockdale News, using photos and video to cover local news and sports. In addition to my news-centric role, I also produced various commercial videos and other digital media products for these newspapers. My photojournalism work garnered a handful of awards, both individually and as part of an editorial team, from the Georgia Associated Press and the Georgia Press Association. After working for the newspaper, I wanted to continue working in the photographic industry and joined the Imaging Resource team in 2013. As Editor, my primary role revolves around producing engaging, authoritative, and in-depth digital camera reviews, across all types of cameras and brands, utilizing both Imaging Resource's trusted laboratory analysis and real-world field testing.Outside of work, I enjoy volunteering my time as a photographer for several Atlanta-area non-profit organizations, The Georgia Conservancy, Global Growers Network, and The Giving Kitchen.
