About Me

Photography has been a constant companion throughout my life—ever since I first picked up a camera while serving in the Navy. What started as a simple curiosity quickly evolved into a passion when I finally got hold of a professional camera. That’s when I realized I wasn’t just taking photos—I was capturing stories.

 As a disabled veteran, my approach to photography is guided by empathy and a deep connection to community. I’ve been honored with several ribbons at the VA Veterans Creative Arts Festival, a recognition that humbles me and fuels my dedication. One of the most meaningful highlights of my career was having a portrait from The Odyssey Project featured in The New York Times—an affirmation of how art and storytelling can reach beyond expectation.

 Based right here in Western New York, I love to photograph what makes our community vibrant:

 Local charity and fundraising events

 Anime and ComiCon's—capturing the energy and creativity of the fandom

 Veteran-focused events—stories that deserve to be shared

 Neighborhood attractions and gatherings—everyday moments made beautiful

 When I’m not behind the lens, you’ll often find me connecting through another one of my passions: Think Twice Radio, a weekly live show in Buffalo, NY. Airing every Friday across Facebook, YouTube, and Twitch, it’s a platform where I amplify voices, explore meaningful conversations, and bring a bit of Buffalo spirit to the airwaves.

 I’m always open to collaboration—ready to help bring your next event, gathering, or celebration into focus. Reach out anytime; I’d be honored to capture your story—one frame at a time.
