I’m a software engineer by profession, working for a major
international company on semantic data modeling tools for
intelligence analysis. I love my work, it’s usually a lot of
fun and fully engaging, but I hunger for creative outlets.
In addition to photography, I paint, draw, am writing a novel,
and training to get my private pilot’s license.

Photography is an exploration of the world, a new way of
seeing the world around me, and of showing it to myself in
new ways. You can go through life never seeing anything,
your eyes just gliding over and off of things that are either
totally familiar, or so unfamiliar that your eye never
latches on. When you learn to look, and see, you begin to
think. And when you THINK, you’re no longer just
creating, you are revealing something
to the world.

Express, don’t impress.
