I am living in my first house in Fairfax Virginia with my lovely wife Gretchen.




I work as a contracted multi-tasker in Washington DC for a mid-sized non DOD/DHS government agency.

Occasionally, I have been asked to shoot the offhand portrait or wedding, but I mostly just like to stumble around the world and capture the things that interest my eye for what ever reason.
