'find' takes me to my home folder instead of the file I selected

This only seems to be a problem with jumping to files more than 1 level deep within ~/Documents, e.g. ~/Documents/onemorefolder/foo

 

When I do `find foo`, where "foo" is the name of a file inside a nested folder within ~/Documents, the file appears in the results, but when I hit return (and no Finder window is open) a Finder window opens to my home folder instead of the directory that contains "foo".

 

When I drop the file into the "file search troubleshooting" tool I get all green checkmarks.

 

If I already have a finder window open to the directory that "foo" is in, `find foo` + return will cause the file "foo" to become selected in Finder if it wasn't already.

 

Anyone else experiencing this? Anything I can try?
