howdy!
I’m a photo editor + producer + researcher living in Austin, Texas. I began my magazine career at Austin Monthly in 2014 as a photo assistant and moved over to Texas Monthly in 2016, where I’ve been the magazine’s sole photo editor since 2018. I’ve been fortunate enough to work with skilled photographers across the state and beyond, from New York to LA to Karachi, Pakistan.
As a photo editor, I oversee photography from concept to execution. This means I collaborate with art directors on visual inspiration and shot lists, coordinate logistics between subjects and photographers, manage budgets, produce on-set, and select which images are used in the magazine. I do this for a wide variety of subject material: everything from celebrities, restaurants, style, and design to news, politics, true crime, and justice. It keeps me on my toes, and I love it!
