I have had a passion for photography since the late nineteen sixties when I purchased a camera to photograph my first-born daughter. I quickly found that just making family images did not satisfy my creative photographic appetite. Since these early days my interests and pursuits have mostly been in the photo treasure hunt. I love to wander in and around cities investigating and capturing images about how we build and decorate our environments. I find beauty in things mundane to the majestic.
I am originally from the San Francisco Bay area. San Francisco State University is my alma mater, graduating with a Masters degree in Art in 1978. I have been teaching and exhibiting since the mid 1970’s. I have taught Photography at Palomar College, near San Diego, since 1989.

Enjoy,
