Biography
I have always been fascinated by the collecting and dissemination of news. Photographing for newspapers and working in TV news production has allowed me to do some of the most satisfying and rewarding work I have ever done. I'm old school in as much as I believe the media performs a vital service and iReport is a great opportunity to contribute in some way. And, personally, having been placed on a heart transplant list and contending with all that entails I now have fresh eyes and iReport is the perfect outlet for something I hold very close.
