I have always been a wanderer. As a child I would explore the hills around our home in Highland Park, CA. Later after we moved to Long Beach, I would explore the salt flats and dunes of dredging spoil near the San Gabriel River and Alamitos Bay. A few years later I had a small boat and spent days on Alamitos Bay. Around this time, I began to photograph during my explorations. Not many years after that I started to dive. This led to a series of home made underwater camera cases and participation in underwater photo exhibitions.

My explorations continue to the present with a clear bias toward the sea. I attempt to capture my love of water while hiking, cycling and paddling canoes and kayaks.
