ABOUT ME
I'm an easy-going person that loves to travel, take photographs, and hit the bars and discotechs. I was born in england, spent some years in india, and about 25 years in texas. Down at heart, I'm basically a texas boy that loves to travel. I've been backpacking the world since I was in college and basically, I've yet to fully grow up. I've probably traveled to over 40 countries or so. I love seeing places from the perspective of local people and enjoy talking about culture and politics.
I just recently launched my own luxury lingerie brand, Tragic Kiss (www.tragickiss.com). I also have my own non-profit (NGO) dedicated to the preservation of tribal cultures, The Aienla Project (www.aienlaproject.com). I've lived with tribal peoples in northeast india and burma photographing their traditional lives and customs for the past 10 years (since college days).
