ABOUT ME
I film to raise awareness & to inspire actions to save these misunderstood apex predators"
I am a shark conservation photographer! Living in Hawai'i, I have the privilege to share the space with sharks among other magnificent marine life. It is with this opportunity, that I feel the call to show the rest of the world the beauty of these animals. People need to understand that we can safely coexist with these sharks and not drive them to extinction. Going out & experiencing what it is like to be in the water with sharks is the first step in changing the image of sharks.
I've worked with several companies:
- Project Hiu, a company that helps fishing vessels in Indonesia to change their income from shark-fishing to commercial tourism. Learn more at projecthiu.com
- Shark Research Lab at HIMB, a research institute that tags sharks to observe and investigate behavior. Learn more at himbsharklab.com
