I went on a yearly retreat to Colorado recently, so I got to experience the Rockies again! The weather was beautiful this year, and I met wonderful new people and reunited with old friends. This photo was taken on the way from Colorado Springs; a storm was rolling in while part of my group was…
We visited Cataract Falls this weekend! I’ve only visited once for work, and it was so fun to experience it again on a sunny day. There was a family picnic in one of the shelters, plenty of hikers, and many dogs! It’s a pretty place definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area. It’s…
I had the pleasure of going on a day trip with this lovely lady! We hit up Cincinnati for a day while we had the opportunity, and though it was gloomy and misty, we had a really good time. She tasted Skyline Chili for the first time! This weekend has been a good capstone to…
I captured this sunset recently on the gorgeous island of Mykonos, Greece, and it reflects my current state of mind. I’d like to think I just finished a chapter of my life. I’ve been swallowed up in chasing professional and personal goals, always looking ahead to the next challenge barreling towards me and hoping I…
What a mess! I got to splatter paint for a stage design this week, and I think it turned out beautifully. It’s a great parallel to the state of my life in this moment – creative, but messy. I don’t mind the chaos because I have a peace that it will yield wonderful fruit, but…

I travelled internationally for the first time, saw ancient ruins from empires past, learned more about St. Paul, discovered more about Greek culture, and connected with amazing people along the…
I’m traveling right now! Sorry, no time to talk – I have to sleep then board a plane in a few hours. I’ll catch you up later!
What an (un)eventful week! I spent a ton of time resting from a small medical procedure on Monday. I got plenty of sleep, caught up on some shows, and turned down so many plans with friends 😔 But life is lived in the little moments, and sometimes it’s the quiet pleasures that refresh the soul.…
March is here! Isn’t it insane that 2025 is 1/6 over? I thought we just celebrated New Year’s a couple weeks ago. But anyway, I went on a few walks this weekend to really take in the (slightly) warmer weather, and I had the pleasure of accompanying my girlfriend and her dog. You can see…
I woke up to birds chirping outside, and it brought such a serenity to my morning. Then I noticed these crows hanging around at work and I had to take their photo! As you might expect, they did not cooperate, so I was forced to appreciate them from a distance. Perhaps I’m preaching to the…
