I was originally going into environmental engineering, but dropped out entering my senior year and switched my major to photography. I got my B.F.A. and M.F.A. in Fine Arts with focus in photography and have been running my own architectural photography business for roughly 15 years now. There is nothing I love more than traveling to new places and shooting pictures. I hate digital photography and still shoot with film 99.9% of the time as one of my favorite aspects of photography is working in the darkroom. Lith printing and Platinum & Palladium printing are some of my favorite printing methods. I also shoot pictures for myself and sell limited edition prints. I just printed up my 100th limited edition print this last weekend. I also do some drawing and painting (preferably charcoal drawing and oil painting). I am just an art junkie in general. Never get tired of looking at beautiful artwork, regardless of the medium.

I have been a serious collector for as long as I can remember. My father introduced me to it at a very young age and it just stuck. I currently collect limited edition prints, golden age and silver age comics, antique/vintage camera's and lenses, antique/vintage Kodak memorabilia, art books and sketch books, limited edition playing cards, statues (mostly Sideshow), replica sci-fi weapons, vintage Belstaff and Barbour jackets, NASA/space memorabilia, coins & bullion, unopened original series Wacky Packages, etc.
