Alec Jacobson is a resident of Williston, Vermont and a student at Amherst College. His parents imbued him with a love of nature, taking him hiking, biking, skiing, camping and boating from a young age. Currently, he hopes to turn his passion for photography into a journalistic career, preferably with National Geographic. Some of his best works can be viewed at http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/myshot/gallery/54448, and also at the Gypsy Dog Gallery in Amherst, Massachusetts.
