Bio
I grew up around commercial photography, watching my father, a veteran in the industry.
I attended Art Center College Of Design in Pasadena, California, where I studied to one day
become an art director. After eight years as a freelance artist in Westchester
and New York City, I decided to do what I did best,create
images on film and in the darkroom.
I have trained in design and commercial art as well as photography
when you bring in a job, you are dealing with an art director of a different sort.
You are dealing with an artist whose brush
is made of light and whose canvas is made of film.
