I’m an oboist and English hornist, and have been in the music profession for more years than I care to admit. I love my work, and it brings me great joy.

So does walking. I’m an avid walker, and I’m most happy when I’m off on a little neighborhood trek. When I walk I nearly always take my camera with me, and I am especially likely to use the macro and see what I can see — and show you — when I get up close and personal to plant life.

I’ve been in a juried exhibit, receiving an honorable mention for one work, and have shown work at Top Nosh Cafe in San Jose, California.

I am happy to provide you with prints or cards of photos you see on this website, on Facebook , Google+, Ello,  or Flickr. Please email me for information.
