Track and Field or athletics as it’s recognized around the world, has been the cornerstone around which I began my creative career. From 2001 to 2011, I put my blood, sweat, and tears into figuring out how to run and jump faster and further. After retiring from the sport, I switched my focus from excelling in the sport as a competitor to exceling as a photographer. I was granted the opportunity to document several different meets (XC included) as well as a few practices at my alma mater, Florida State University. This is how I’ve observed the sport I love that has given me so much.
