About the Artist

I strive to grow as an artist daily, whether I'm on a shoot, working with my students, or attending classes. I teach high school Art full time (Photography, Computer Art, and Sculpture), as well as Computer Art and Digital Photography part time at the graduate level. I've studied at SUNY Brockport and the Visual Studies Workshop where I received my BS as well as a minor in Art History. I later attended Nazareth College to complete my MS in Art Education. I've been involved with photography since 1987, and shooting professionally since 2004. Each year I set ambitious new goals for my Art, explore new media, processes, and equipment. I work very hard to please my clients and find cost effective solutions to meet their photographic needs.
