I am long time resident of Hawaii with roots both here and in British Columbia, Canada where I was born and raised.  I was introduced to photography at a young age by my father as a very practical way of documenting people and places.  But it wasn’t until I had the opportunity to live in Japan that I became more interested in learning how I could create more interesting and artistic images.  My journey to becoming a ‘serious’ photographer has been greatly enhanced over the years by my participation in classes and workshops offered by Pacific New Media along with much self-guided study and exploration of the various genres of photography.
