CURRENT MISSION

Live, Love, Survive, Stay Free

ABOUT ME

I am a professional photographer who prefers to shoot landscapes, travel, architecture, culture, commercial and advertising, and art.

I am a musician who loves to sing, compose, play guitar, trumpet, and program electronic music.

I am an outdoorsman, an eagle scout, and very chill.

PHILOSOPHY

In life I drive with the windows down and the music loud... live life to the fullest. Hindsight in 20/40 - live in the moment. Keep your perceptions and energy positive...listen to your intuitions and laugh at yourself. love.

"A human being...experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest - a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole nature in its beauty. Nobody is able to achieve this completely but striving for such achievement is, in itself, a part of the liberation and a foundation for inner security."
- Albert Einstein

not all who wander are lost...

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with weary feet,
Until it joins some larger way,
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say..."
