After a career of over 35 years working as a tax accountant, the inner drive of photography & videography has overcome my desires of ticking and tying numbers on a daily basis. I have been passionate photographer all of my life and have leveraged that passion by using film to tell the stories of others. One of the most important early works I have achieved is capturing the story of Sergeant Major James Williams, the last known living Buffalo Soldier. His story has lead me to understand that there are others with passionate life stories that will go unknown unless someone tells that story. My works will continue to grow as I capture stories of others who have shaped our American society. An avid fisherman, I enjoy the outdoors, helping kids and capturing outdoor moments of natural beauty.
