About me

I’m a regional award winning photojournalist who has been a visual content creator since 15 years of age.

Past Accomplishments & Awards for my photojournalistic work:

  • 1992 - 1 of 99 out of 847 applicants accepted to the Eddie Adams Workshop attending as a member of the “Green Team”. While there, I was 1 of 15 special merit award winners for my work. This award resulted in the publication of a photodocumentary project I had shot over the course of 18 months.
  • 1993 - Society of Professional Journalists (Willamette Valley Chapter) - 1st place Photo Page, Third place each for Feature Photos and Sports Photography
  • 1994 - Society of Professional Journalists (Willamette Valley Chapter):  2nd place - Best feature photo.

In my past still work, I specialized in photo documentary and slice of life stories. Since discovering the new paradigm of self contained video production, I now focus my energies in the Solo VJ paradigm with an emphasis on people-based stories, arts, travel and documentary work.

In addition, I produced the first web based publication back in the late 90's devoted exclusively to freediving called "Freediving Internet Magazine".
