Not that I think you should smile for every photo, but I believe in smiling. Life is more fun when you smile.

I call Milwaukee, WI home with my wife, Erin, and our great dane, Zeke. We all enjoy making trips to the dog park and going on walks to Lake Michigan. I'm the only native to the area in our new little family, so I love a good tasteful beer throughout the year.

Most of my time is spent at my place of employment, UW-Milwaukee. Currently I'm employed as a "Digital Asset Manager / Photographer" in the Photo Services department where I manage a photo archive and take photographs for the university. It's here that I have gathered some years of experience and a wealth of knowledge in the professional photography world. As my job title suggests, I specialize in managing photos. I love to catalog film and digital photographs, which is a good thing because you can't always be taking pictures. On that note, my number one passion is to get behind a camera and photograph whatever it is that's in front of it. Life offers an unlimited number of visually interesting things and I'm all about giving them credit.

Here's a quick list with a few of my ambitions, interests, and accomplishments:
• BFA in Photography from UW-Milwaukee, 2007
• Ran the Chicago Marathon and plan on many more
• Loves shooting film in the digital age
• Wakes up to coffee
