I’ve had a lot of varied positions:

Photographer Photography Assistant Dark Room Technician Clerk Programmer Systems Analyst Writer and Author Salesman Purchasing Agent Reporter Accountant Publisher Real Estate Developer Photographer

I grew up happily in New Rochelle, N.Y. during the 50’s and 60’s. New Rochelle was a wonderful place where I was befriended by so many wonderful people. I went to college in Michigan, met my lovely wife Kris and shortly thereafter moved to Grand Rapids, Michigan where we raised our large family of nine children.

Having been trained in computers and programming, we soon founded Abacus – a startup company in the early days of microcomputers. Abacus had a long 34 year run publishing books and software for the growing consumer market until 2012 when we closed shop and moved onto new challenges.

Over the past few years, my strong gravitation to photography has returned. There are probably a few other jobs that I could add to the list above, but you can see that I’ve come full circle having starting out as a photographer and now I’m back at it again.
