In 1997, armed with a Bachelor of Business Administration-Computer Information Systems degree from the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor (GO BLUE!), I moved to Chandler, Arizona (the ancestral homelands of the Hohokam) to begin a 10-year project management career in software development at Intel Corporation. Initially as an outlet to corporate life, I began making photographs of the Western landscapes in late 2001 during my "Introduction to Photography" class at the Chandler-Gilbert Community College. Two years later, I started selling my photographs at art shows across Arizona. In 2006, I had my first photograph published in a magazine. Then, in February 2007, I left the grey cubicle walls of Corporate America to pursue a full-time career in photography and writing. Now, I can't imagine life wandering without a camera or a notebook in hand! My publication credits include National Geographic calendars, Arizona Highways, AAA VIA, On Landscape, National Parks Traveler, and a broad variety of other publications. I have also served three times as an Artist-in-Residence with Acadia National Park. I'm just as excited to help others learn photography as I am making my own images, so I've proudly led photography workshops for my own company, CMS Photography, as well as outstanding organizations like the Arizona Highways Photography Workshops (AHPW), Moab Photography Symposium, The Nature Conservancy, Arizona Wildlife Federation's "Becoming an Outdoor Woman," Through Each Others Eyes, and for numerous private clients. In hopes of encouraging others to enjoy the Great Outdoors beyond workshops, I have authored the award-winning guidebooks, Wild in Arizona: Photographing Arizona’s Wildflowers, A Guide to When, Where, & How (1st and 2nd editions) and Photographing Acadia National Park: The Essential Guide to When, Where, and How (1st and 2nd editions). I also authored the instructional eBook, Seeing the Light in Outdoor Photography and produced The Current Flows: Water in the Arid West exhibition catalogue in conjunction with my 16-image solo photographic exhibit—alongside the Vital Waters photography exhibition—curated Jeanne Falk Adams (Ansel Adams’ daughter-in-law). I hope to publish my first adventure travel memoir, So Said the River: Life, Loss, and Pie on the Colorado, in addition to other photography-related titles, in 2024. In late 2019, I started the online photography advice column, Dear Bubbles. I believe learning never ends, and so I'm proud to be an active member and a past Secretary and Treasurer on the Board of Directors for the Outdoor Writers Association of America (OWAA), an organization I served as the interim Executive Director during the first half of 2017. When I'm not photographing, writing, or teaching, I enjoying camping, stand-up paddleboarding, hiking, making sand and snow angels, taking adult ballet & pointe lessons, playing my flute, sipping Chardonnay or gin, reading, laughing, goofing off, wandering, and wondering...my life's motto is "You can sleep when you're dead." I intend to make the most of the short time I have on this Earth, helping and inspiring as many people as I can to do the same along the way... (I promise I won't make you do a handstand or a sand angel on a Sheography™ adventure...but you really should try both at least once in your life...)
