Born in the Buckeye State of Ohio, I studied Geology at Oberlin College. My father’s interest in photography rubbed off on me, even though I committed an early error by leaving my first camera on an airplane.
During school, I inherited my grandmother’s metalsmithing tools, spawning a career as an award-winning jeweler.
My uncle was a building contractor, which led me to become a designer/builder of energy-efficient homes and an instructor of housebuilding.
