I’ve produced, written and edited stories from all the continents, visited 62 countries and every U.S. and Australian state. And so, I have a broad portfolio: agriculture, business, conservation, environment, health, science, sustainability and technology.

I particularly enjoy topics involving adventure, history, preservation and economic development. I started my career globetrotting for CNN’s Travel News Unit. These days, I’m creating content for RVshare, Livability and the University of Tennessee Medical Center.

Over the past few years, I’ve driven 115,000 miles and counting (185,000 km) on four continents, using a diverse set of cameras to record the world's most picturesque routes and the attractions that lie along them. I've turned this passion into Beautiful Byways, the world’s only website and YouTube channel profiling America’s scenic byways with both articles and videos.

From written stories with photography to YouTube Shorts, TikTok and long-form videos, I love making content for websites, social media and organizations of all sizes.

Florida's Tamiami Trail

RVshare wants to introduce travelers to lesser-known roads that go beyond a drive through a national or state park. So, this story includes nature preserves, vultures, a boat ride and key lime pie.

I pitched the winning bid for five James Beard Foundation videos focusing on reducing food waste through the different stages of cooking, from meal prep to composting.

Chicago's Hoosier Mama Pie Co.

A producing partner and I were commissioned to create a one-hour special on American pie shops. My personal favorite bakery was this gem in an eclectic Chicago neighborhood.
