The allure and mystery of what lies beneath the waves has captivated me since a young age. I've always been drawn to the adventure that awaits on the open ocean. Adventures like kayak fishing with hand-line lines for tarpon, and operating a nuclear plant aboard a fast attack submarine.  Working in the sport fishing industry has afforded me the ability to be on the water almost every day and encounter all types of wildlife.  I have great respect and admiration for the ocean and thus prefer catch and release fishing and preserving those experiences with my photography, woodcuts and acrylic.
