Earning a degree in Photography from SUNY I have taught photography at the New School for Social Research and privately and have lectured at various educational institutions.
I was awarded a Creative Artist Public Service Fellowship to study Street Life in New York and a National Endowment for the Art Survey Grant to photograph the New York Financial District.
