Here is an interview I did with Canvas Rebel

Owner / Photographer / Editor


Hi! I’m the owner of Pic My Home, the premier real estate photography business in Middle Tennessee.

I strive to achieve two things in this business:

1. provide my clients with the highest quality media solutions to help them sell their homes, and
2. ensure my service is second to none!

More about me…

I’m a native of Murfreesboro, graduating from Oakland High School and MTSU. Out of high school I decided to join the Marine Corps reserves, serving 6 years in the infantry and attaining the rank of Sergeant. During that period, my college education was put on hold while I was deployed to Iraq. Upon returning home, I re-enrolled in school. After completing my military contract, I moved to Germany for a year as part of a study abroad program. Once I graduated, I moved back to Germany then to Oman, where I lived and taught English for three years so I could understand more about the Middle East from the perspective of a civilian. During my time in Germany and Oman I had the good fortune to travel around Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. Afterwards, I moved to Boston to attend gradate school at Lesley University. During my time in Boston, both my kids were born. After seven years, we moved back to Murfreesboro to be closer to family and friends.

So how did I get here? Well, the decision to embark on this journey has been the culmination of a lifetime of passions I’ve had and skills and experiences I’ve gained. Starting this business felt like the perfect intersection of all these things. All my life I have been artistic: drawing, painting, and creating pottery growing up. When I was living in Europe, I took up photography and learned how to use a DSLR camera. In my first job out of grad school, I worked at Dreambridge Partners, where I had the opportunity to manage projects, create videos, and design a website. Then later, at Starbucks, I had the opportunity to lead people and manage a business. 

If you imagine a Venn diagram, my business is the spot where all these passions I have and skills I’ve developed over the years overlap: art, creativity, photography, project management, photo/video production, leadership and business management. 

I’ve been extremely fortunate to have the opportunities that I’ve had: to spend years living overseas and traveling the world, to have met great people along the way, to have such an amazing group of friends and family around me, to have two wonderful children, and now the ability to pursue my passion and open my own business. Thank you to everyone who is part of my life and supporting me on this journey!
