I'm a storyteller who works in photographs and words.

I taught myself photography from YouTube videos and hundreds of thousands of bad shots. Started in auto mode. Stayed there until I stopped being afraid. One day I switched to manual and never went back.

I've photographed high school sports and rodeos. Written for the local paper. Published three middle grade and two young adult novels on Amazon. Never wrote before those books. Just took a chance and asked for help.

Thirty-six years ago I taught myself programming the same way. Figured it out. Kept going.

Different mediums. Same instinct. Find the story.

I grew up in Massachusetts. Summer meant baseball. Winter meant shoveling my nana's driveway before school. After twenty-eight years of New England cold, I headed west and settled in Arizona's White Mountains in 2020.

My wife and I got married in Certaldo, Italy, during a three-month stay that still feels like something from a novel. These days you'll find us hiking, soaking in mountain air, or watching Hallmark Christmas movies.

Feel free to reach out.
