    Meet the Artist & Creator of mtcharlestongifts.com

    As a local Las Vegas artist and photographer, I’ve captured the beauty of Mt. Charleston and the Spring Mountains in my artwork, which is featured on the products available on this website.

    My journey with this incredible landscape began in 2018, when I moved to Las Vegas and started working for a nonprofit organization at the Mt. Charleston Visitor Center. It was here that I fell in love with the mountain, its serene wilderness, and the vibrant wildlife that calls it home.

    Today, I combine my passion for nature and creativity by designing unique products that celebrate the beauty of Mt. Charleston, Lee Canyon, and the Spring Mountains. Whether you’re a hiker, skier, camper, or simply someone who loves the outdoors, my artwork is inspired by the breathtaking landscapes that make this area so special.
