I am a photographer specializing in documenting life via still photographs. When we all are dead and gone.....I will have left my images here for future generations. For years and years my images will show what the past was, history depends on me.

My passion for photography came instantly to me when I first heard the sound of the shutter mixed with the feeling of the 'click' in my hands as I took that first picture. I felt the power, importance, historic responsibilities and the creative freedom pounding at a door of opportunity. I had a very strong feeling that a camera was going to be part of my life.

As a well-developed college student I earned a Bachelor of Art in Graphic Design from St. Norbert College in De Pere, Wisconsin. After college I have continued to stay on top of the digital photography scene but can still be seen with my old 35mm Nikon F shooting a good 'ole roll of T-Max 400 at times. I feel that when I am out shooting film it brings me back to my roots, where every exposure isn't free and every exposure does matter.
