While studying photojournalism at college in San Francisco, Tate began developing the global photography program for Acanela Expeditions, designing and leading trips on four continents around the globe, spanning over 70 countries, including several expeditions to the Arctic. As a passionate photojournalist, Tate has spent the past seven years shooting wildlife and environmental stories across the world for clients such as The Nature Conservancy, the International Anti-Poaching Foundation, The Guardian, NPR, Adobe Lightroom, and more. Between photo assignments, Tate has led 4,500 km cycling expeditions across southern Africa, trekked across the Arctic, and continued to lead photography-focused trips in all corners of the world. This fall, Tate is planning to solo trek the Arctic Circle Trail in Greenland while producing a multimedia story focused on climate change and the shifting Arctic landscape.
