I've been taking photos every since my first Olympus point&shoot back when I was a fledging 9-year-old at summer camp. Even before then, I was using my dad's manual Minolta film SLR on occasion. In 2008, I upgraded to my first Nikon DSLR and now I almost never leave the house without it. I'm completely self-taught and I still have much to learn, but life is a constant learning experience and I hope to take full advantage of that.

I'm business analyst/ database developer who's also an avid hiker, kayaker, snowboarder, rock climber, and traveler from the Boston area and I plan to get shots of some of my various activities and friends. I prefer my photos candid as it captures life the way it's suppose to happen. Naturally I lean more towards street photography and photojournalism, but I'm trying to move into glamour photography and engagement photos to expand upon my creativity.
