MY LOVE OF PHOTOGRAPHY began early in my life, when I first realized how thrilling it can be to create, capture, and then share unique combinations of light, time, and place. Since that discovery I have devoted my life to photography — both as a passion and as a career.
I received my first advanced photographic training at the
Southeast Center for Photographic Studies, an internationally recognized division of
Daytona State College, in Daytona Beach, Florida. In my four years there, I achieved an Associate of Science degree in Photographic Technologies and, separately, an Associate of Arts degree in Culture and Aesthetics.
Also while in Daytona I worked nearly full-time as a technician in a very busy
photo lab that specialized in services for the area's top professional photographers. I loved the job because it gave me 'real world' practical knowledge about the photography industry.
To further develop my appreciation of photography, and of the arts in general, I finished college at
Florida Atlantic University, in Boca Raton, where I earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree.
After college I returned to my hometown, Sarasota, where I became employed for several years as the full-time assistant to one of the area's most well-known professional photographers. In January of 2010, I launched my own business.
