Her skills and interests also include documentary and reportage.  She is a full-time photographer and archivist at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in Washington D.C.   She has enjoyed covering a range of events at the White House, the Vice President’s residence, Kennedy Space Center, and the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, where she covered the manned launches to the International Space Station.

Her reporting and documentary work has been distributed worldwide through news and photo agencies, such as the Associated Press, Reuters, National Geographic Online and Getty Images.
