Greetings. I'm glad you stopped by. I may never meet you, but at least we have this medium in which we can share a bit of our selves and what we do. What do I do? I consider myself an artist. I don't stick to a particular medium, though professionally I am a filmmaker: cinematographer and editor. I teach Advertising and Public Relations courses at Grand Valley State University in Grand Rapids, Michigan as well as Communications and Media courses at Muskegon Community College.

Greetings. I'm glad you stopped by. I may never meet you, but at least we have this medium in which we can share a bit of our selves and what we do. What do I do? I consider myself an artist. I don't stick to a particular medium, though professionally I am a filmmaker: cinematographer and editor.

I grew up on Lake Michigan, well... next to it, not on it. Something about the endless horizon lent itself to me being a dreamer: what is on the other side? I could create that in my mind. I am left eye-dominant and right handed. I mention that because most people are right eye dominant. I think this means I see the world using mainly the right hemisphere of my brain: the creative side. I tend to do things non-linearly; I might have a plan for my week with things I have to do, but the rest is generally a stream of actions and reactions that, of course, I have no plan for. I have the choice and I'll make it then when the time comes. I'm glad you made the choice to stop by. I really appreciate it and I hope some of the images you see here or the links you pass along to from my page to others add meaning and value to your journey.

Thanks again. Enjoy.
