Photography has been a big part my life since, I first pick up my dad's Canon 35 mm at 12 years old. I would study film and photography over the next eight years.
At 20, I join the marines, traveling the world and taking photos along the way. So, after 35 years of services I decide to follow my lifelong dream to go to Brooks Institute to get my BFA in Photography in April of 2018.
As I travel the world shooting, I enjoy meeting people, seeing places, working with models, designers. I just got back from Paris Fashion Week. I also got the chance to shoot in Paris, and Cannes, France; Venice, Italy; Switzerland. In 2019 I went Mount Saint Mary’s University in Hollywood to studio Photography, Film, director, cinematography, photography food and fashion. In 2022 I graduated with a 3.86 GPA with MFA in Film, Television, Cinematography and Photography.
