Having the incredible opportunity to photograph the polar bears of the Arctic and the penguins of Antarctica will one day be included in her book of Wild Wanderings she hopes to publish in memory of her father, who was her inspiration to travel and was by her side on almost every journey.

Included in her many favorite destinations are Egypt and Madagascar. She has lead numerous groups to Egypt having been there 25+ times and looks forward to returning again with future groups.

She is passionate about the island country of Madagascar and helping to save the endangered lemur colonies that reside in this biodiversity hotspot. Over 90% of Madagascar’s wildlife is found nowhere else on Earth. Traveling to Madagascar 10+ times since 2007 & photographing more than 30 species of lemurs in their natural habitat makes her the expert for this destination. She enjoys independent travel or group travel through Nat Geo Tours, Lindblad Tours, & Terra Incognita Ecotours.
