Thank you for your response. ✨

The towns that work with me want their story told with authenticity. I bring a creative eye and genuine curiosity that turn small-town moments into something memorable and meaningful.

I am a mom, traveler, photographer, teacher, entrepreneur, and all-around lover of adventure. Welcome to Rust and Simple, where I share my journey, my passions, and a whole lot of shenanigans. I’ve always had a restless heart and a deep love for seeing new places. My travels started when my daughters were just babies, and I never stopped.

Whether it’s a road trip to a hidden gem, a scenic detour for the perfect photo, or a cozy day with a book, I believe life is best lived in motion. Read More
