I currently reside on the Northside of Pittsburgh where I grew up on our family homestead. I first discovered my passion for photography at a very young age capturing images around our farm. I studied photography at the Ivy School of Professional Art located in my backyard of Pittsburgh. After graduation I became a freelance photographer with clients such as Rockwell International, IBM and Carnegie Mellon University. I was hired by Eastman Kodak and managed their sales operations in Chicago for over 21 years. I left Kodak in 2006 and transitioned to Fujifilm where I continue to work supporting the Printing and Publishing Industry. I returned to Pittsburgh and to my roots in 2012. I hold a CPP with the Professional Photographers of America where I have been a member since 2010.
