What is your favorite type of art to create?

Documentary/Street Photography

Where do you find inspiration?

Frank Espada, Corky Lee, Michael Jang, and Julia Dean are a few of the many photographers I admire. I find inspiration in everyday encounters the candid moment the right light the composition, an interesting situation or face. Doing this helps me connect and stay in the moment

What would you do with $25,000?

Fill my gas tank, pay bills, hopefully travel to take pictures of children in third world countries print a book which the proceeds go to UNICEF. Then start a portrait book on the senior citizens of late 60’s generation that would give a short history of the person behind the portrait.
