Description
I am an amateur photographer, living in Goleta, California. Goleta is West of Santa Barbara and is the true location of the University of California Santa Barbara, where I work in the University Archives. My family is from Philadelphia and I grew up in Pennsylvania. I attended Moravian Academy in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania for six years, and I went on to Boston College, where I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology. During my junior year of college, I studied in Fribourg, Switzerland and travelled extensively throughout Europe. After college, I lived in San Francisco for three years, working in law libraries and taking classes at Berkeley. I moved to Santa Barbara to attend graduate school and earned a Master of Arts degree in History.After finishing graduate school, I pursued my interests in surfing and playing bass guitar.
Lately, my interest has "focussed" on photography, and I have been studying at the Photographic Institute in Goleta. For the most part, I have been photographing landscapes and flowers, but I am beginning to do more still life and portrait photography at home. I mostly admire the work of Edward Weston and Ansel Adams, but I am frequently impressed by other photographers work.
