Hiking and Photography

Since I was very young, I've been an avid explorer of rivers, lakes, streams and woodlands. During my time in Campbellsville, I've enjoyed supporting and participating in various enterprises to help create and maintain local trail systems that are part of the Green River Lake area. 

A former board member of Campbellsville-Taylor County Trail Town and current board member for Clay Hill Memorial Forest, I often volunteer time to help promote and assist the Friends of Green River Lake in cooperation with their partnership with the Louisville Districts US Army Corp of Engineers ongoing efforts to provide recreation for many who visit our area. 

Photography has always appealed to my interests and I was happy to be asked to exhibit some of my photos at Campbellsville University's Homecoming, a couple of years ago.
