Photography gave me the opportunity to be involved in peoples lives and show the world the good and bad of the world we share with each other. A member of the 2010 Pulitzer-Prize in Public Service winning team and the 2017 Scripps Howard Community Journalism Award team from the Bristol Herald Courier in Bristol, Virginia. Operations Manager for a Cruise Ship Photography Company helped me refine my skills on working with people in photographs and management skills. Even in a small town there is always something or someone to photograph. The events may be the same every year but the people always change. Interested in having me document your event or activity
