My selfless quest to contribute to the world—IT executive turned marine conservationist

Not many have the luxury in their lifetime to legitimately choose between staying their currently plotted course or taking an off-ramp to pursue their life’s purpose. It took all my fortitude to mute the influences that distort what we consider relevant and necessary for self-preservation to achieve my moment of clarity and re-evaluate my life’s questions and its terms. In the end, with a clear conscience I chose to leave behind a secure and successful career to pursue my everlasting passion for the ocean and all her might and beauty.

I believe that sharing images and stories creates an emotional connection between a person and marine life. This connection raises awareness and potentially inspires people into their own awakening—the realization that the smallest of personal contributions go a long way towards protecting our planet and conserving the marine ecosystem. As a common citizen of this planet, I strive to awaken that selfless inspiration in all of us through the power of photography, videography, and storytelling.
