March 2025 | The new and the old markers of the Canada-US border. Spent Thursday driving 0 Avenue along the border and visiting the crossings for Bloomberg. I chatted with one person whose house backs onto the border and her biggest fear was a rambunctious grandchild running into the US.

February 2025 | Our backcountry territory is larger than the country of Germany. Better forecasts and data is needed to keep people safe. Snow science is an amazingly complex and fascinating field and on this reporting trip I met some of the most snow obsessed people at @avalanchecanada

February 2025 | Give me a drone, a Sidewinder log tug, and some log booms and I’m going to spend way too long making photos. Photos around the Chemainus and Ladysmith WFP operations as softwood lumber tariffs loom for BC. 📷’s for @bloombergbusiness #VancouverIsland #BritishColumbia #Bloombergphotos

February 2025 | One of the most scenic industrial locations I’ve photographed in a while. I also almost got blown off my feet multiple times from the wind howling down the Columbia River valley (my apologies to the video editors at Bloomberg). #Revelstoke #BritishColumbia #Bloombergphotos

February 2025 | Figured these could be worthy of a first post here. A little taste of Winter in the mountains. Revelstoke leaves quite the impression. #Revelstoke #InteriorBC #SelkirkRange #BritishColumbia #Canada #onassignment #bigmountains #Winterinthemountains #180to600ofzoomiegoodness
