I spent my life trying to be someone else; until I picked up a camera and found myself. For years, I chased approval, hid behind self-doubt, and lived according to who I thought I was supposed to be. I never planned to be a photographer, especially not in paintball but life had other plans. Finding Me: From Imposter to Icon is the raw, unfiltered story of how I went from pretending to be someone else to becoming a two-time Photographer of the Year. It’s about the setbacks that nearly broke me, the unexpected moments that shaped me, and the lessons I learned from capturing one of the fastest, most chaotic sports in the world. More than a memoir about paintball or photography, this is a journey of identity, resilience, and discovering what happens when you stop living for others and start living for yourself. If you’ve ever felt like an imposter in your own life, this book will remind you—you’re closer to finding yourself than you think.
