Native New Yorker, who has worked in the newspaper industry for the last 20+ years. Got interested in photography at around age 12, when I got my first SLR. Took a bit of a break from the hobby as the world transitioned from film to digital and primarily used P&S digitals for snapshots. Got my first DSLR in 2008 and have enjoyed using it ever since.
I'm also very interested in music. I play guitar, sing and dabble in a couple of other instruments, and have an interest in learning more about recording and audio engineering.
