I have been fortunate to travel to the majority of the United States, often on cross-country road trips with my parents and later through school, work, and visiting friends. This page is a record of the places I have been—some deeply experienced, others passed through. In many cases, I stayed overnight without documenting the moment. In hindsight, I wish I had taken more photos. What remains are snapshots tied to specific memories, people, and phases of life.

The states I still need to visit: Alaska, Connecticut, Delaware, Idaho, Maine, Montana, New Hampshire, New Jersey, North Dakota, Oregon, Utah, Vermont, Wyoming.
