After struggling to maintain passing grades in high school and college, I asked my mother what she thought of my poor academic efforts. She said, “I understood that you learned differently.” Photography has been that difference for me. Photography became a means to look at and think about the world that was meaningful. Using a camera fueled my curiosity, sparked an interest in reading, in the work of other photographers, and the broader arts. Interpreting forms and light through the lens and black and white print values developed into a natural, intuitive language for me.
Throughout my life, I have worked as an artist, freelance photographer, and an independent filmmaker. In my professional career, I specialize in projects for museums and cultural agencies producing work for exhibits, publications, and media installations about cultural identity, architecture, and the power of creative endeavors to shape our world. My fine art work varies from life-long investigations, to projects with a specific scope and goal, to portfolios created from carrying a camera while canoeing or strolling around a local reservoir.
