It had been almost 3 years since I returned to San Francisco for a visit this past June. It felt like an eternity. The city had changed into something even more recognizable than when I left it last. Tech and poor leadership have altered a place I often visited as a child and lived during most of my 20s and early 30s.
This night, however, flying from a friend's rooftop apartment, reminded me that it is still one of the most beautiful cities in the world. It can be resurrected – granted voters can eventually recall ineffective 'leaders' like Chesa Boudin out. I'll always return, and bring my daughter back, but I do sometimes mourn those carefree times from decades past when everything was truly more diverse.
What happens when you leave the place that shaped you? I grew up in California and spent most of my life there. I also explored nearby states often, especially after I got my driver's license. When I moved my daughter and I to Michigan, four years ago, I returned on periodic visits with an entirely new perspective of the places that molded me into the person I am today. After beating Stage 3c colon cancer, I felt the urge to take even more calculated risks. When I die, I want to be remembered as someone who pushed the limits of what is possible – especially with my drone work.
These images were captured between 2018 to August, 2021. They all represent a significant step toward conquering my fears, not to mention adversity. Somehow I withstood the odds and am here today to share my story with you. Way Out West is a rebirth. I may be a Midwesterner, now, but the special places, and the memories they hold, live in this collection.
