Photography started out as a cheap thrill with friends. After viewing a Salgado exhibit at Joslyn Art Museum in my hometown Omaha, I decided photography would be my artistic expression. I graduated Arizona State University with a BFA in Photography and teach the craft to both high school kids and adults. I currently live in Chandler, AZ with my wife Vesna, our two children and multitude of animals.
