After completing school, he began working in Custom Art Framing and Gallery

glass, photography, painting, and collage, he has an extended knowledge in art
supplies and techniques and is certified by NAMTA. This led to an opportunity to
work in many facets of art. He eventually transferred to Las Vegas, Nevada in
1992 and became a founding member of the Las Vegas Artists Guild while
managing a large national art supply company. He developed a passion for
photography and served on the board of the Nevada Camera Club where he

In 2004 he had the opportunity to move to Tubac, Arizona and partner with the

2010 he became a member of the Tubac Buddhist Meditation Center which has
inspired his latest collection of paintings titled “FINDING CENTER – A JOUNEY
