I am a science fiction geek and tech savvy guy that loves art.  Ever since I was a kid, I loved expressing my stories through art.  My journey through the fine arts started at the ripe age of 7 where I started to constantly draw portraits and landscapes of my surroundings. As I grew just a little older at the wise age of twelve, I began a love affair with photography and film. Yes, it was love at first sight…or first shot.

I picked up my father’s Canon AE-1 35mm film camera (a true classic!) and just started shooting! I didn’t stop. With my dad’s trusty camera (did I mention he was also a photographer?), I went to university and began to incorporate photography not only into my life of academia but also into business. Our family comes from a long line of artists and creative souls. For almost thirty years, our family owned an art gallery in the heart of  Vienna, VA just outside of Washington D.C.. For over a decade, I spent many hours cultivating my creativity and skills alongside my father. I emerged from the gallery not only as a seasoned photographer but also as a custom-framer, graphic designer,  art restorer and an artist. I was ready for the canvas of my next adventure.

Next stop – cinematography. I went to George Mason University enhancing my skills for my degree in film, video production and art visual technology. It was a lot of fun! It took all the skills I have cultivated throughout the years and brought everything full circle.

Since graduation, I focused full-time in photography and film. My assignments have been keeping me very happily busy between New York, Washington D.C., Maryland and Virginia – globally as well to Europe, Canada, Middle East and beyond. Did I mention that I love to travel, too? There is just so much to capture everywhere and all the time!
