Inspired by the eclectic mix of artist and educators in his hometown of Dallas Texas he eventually began to study photography and digital filmmaking. It was a chance meeting with a 1960s photographer and experimental filmmaker that would change the way he viewed art and it’s relevance. Understanding the importance of using his talents to make a difference he changed course. Leaving behind his career as a fashion news photographer/editor he began focusing his efforts on social and environmental issues. He continues to work as a filmmaker through new platforms such as; rural tourism, outreach programs, social media, radio, podcasts, web series, and documentary films.
