Lake Placid in the Adirondacks is a training/competition site for Olympians and other outdoor enthusiasts. This photographer's appreciation for human energy, nature's beauty and rustic charm befits travel and sports editorial features and advertising. Battaglia has covered twelve Olympics (credentialed for ten Winter Games) and is herself an ADK 46er (twice), having hiked the 46 highest mountains in the Adirondacks. As an active outdoor person she is constantly documenting life and scenes as she goes.
