About Me

Hey there! I am a 3 time Emmy ®  award winning storm chaser and photojournalist. I am a stringer with Live Storms Media. Extreme weather and storm chasing have interested me for as long as I can remember.  From tornadoes and severe storms to snow and flooding, my interests include any form of severe or unusual weather.  Although I can recall driving my bike into afternoon thunderstorms as early as 1994 (when I was just 13 years old), it wasn't until 1999 that I began serious storm chasing.  Along with storm chasing, I love trying to photograph lightning, astronomy and anything with nature. Besides storm chasing the other thing people seem to associate with me is flying drones.  I was one of the first people in the country to use drones (or UAS) for newsgathering.  Early on, I used it primarily in weather-related news events like flooding and storm damage, but since then I have flown drones around tornadoes and in the eye of multiple major hurricanes. My work has been routinely featured both domestically and internationally.
