An early start in stills photography provided a solid foundation in lighting, composition, framing and exposure. 
Experience in front of and behind the camera has been a valuable experience in understanding the creative process - from concept to completion.
Radio and television voiceovers, on camera talent for television commercials and corporate training films gave me an appreciation for timing, pacing and execution.
My background in electronic news gathering (ENG) and electronic field production (EFP) in television broadcasting required technical knowledge and the ability to react quickly and professionally to the demands of a production.
I have worked on film sets as a crew member and have been privileged to work with creative professionals who have a passionate drive to produce works of art.
In the local arts community, I've had the pleasure of filming and photographing musicians' live performances to much acclaim for my portrayal of their talents.
