As long as I can remember I have been intrigued with the beauty of nature. I spent many hours of my adolescence absorbing the details of the infamous National Geographic photographs. Unlike most, it was easy for me to choose my major while attending college at Cerritos College in California, and with honors I graduated with a degree in photography. It was clear that I found my passion in the ability to capture the beauty of nature through the art of photography. Throughout my adult life I have had the pleasure of surrounding myself with the technical and artistic aspects of photography. I have been employed at various photographic laboratories and was pleased to be the Manager at Epixel Laboratories in Elmont, New York. My leisure time has been consumed with the joy of photography and it has been a bonus to realize that others enjoy my work. More specifically, my photographs have been published in Lighthouse Digest, Birds & Blooms, The Neighbor Newspapers and have won awards from the Photographic Federation of Long Island and first place for Art In The Park shows. Several photographs have been chosen by Long Island Birding, Smithsonian Magazine and Better Photo as Editor’s pick to be posted on their websites. It was particularly pleasing to have the opportunity to share my work at several photography exhibits which include Sagamore Hill National Historic Site, African American Museum Of Nassau County, Castello di Borghese Vineyard and Winery, Fire Island Lighthouse, and many libraries. I will continue to pursue my passion in photography by opening eyes and discovering the beauty of nature……
