I first became interested in photography in my early teen years. This interest blossomed into a passion that led me to study photography at Rochester Institute of Technology in the Imaging Sciences and Photographic Technology department. After a few years away from photography and starting a career in Information Technology, my love of photography experienced a renaissance as the worlds of technology and photography began to blend together. my work includes pieces from three continents, weddings, portraits and multiple local sporting events.
