I never learned how to stay in one box, , , So naturally, I built a life without them. Thinking outside of it was inevitable.
Before I ever picked up a camera, I was moving to the beat. On my back spinning, popping, breaking, as a hip-hop dancer and choreographer, working with nationally published recording artists and living inside the pulse of music, motion, and performance.
That foundation taught me how to see attitude, confidence, and emotion before a single word is spoken.
Next came over a decade of music production. Long nights, bright stages, studio sessions, and the relentless pursuit of a sound that you can feel. I didn’t just participate in the industry… I competed in it, even reaching a moment where my work outsold Whitney Houston*. That experience didn’t just sharpen my ear, it made me understand the politics of the music industry and how talent, given true opportunity, can prevail. It shaped my understanding of impact success, and triumph.
Since 1996, photography has been my canvas. Not just taking pictures. Creating presence. Capturing energy. Freezing moments that feel intimate, real, unique, and alive. My work is influenced by everything I am. A producer’s sense of timing, a dancer’s understanding of body language, a writer’s instinct for story, and an artist’s obsession with composition, light, shadow, and mood.
I draw. I write. I sing. I rap. I create because it's who I am. I have a need to create. Now, at 58, I’m not slowing down — I’m refining the vision. It's time to revise my skills, hone my experiences, and assist the new generation of 'Go Getters, Ma and Pa businesses, and Influencers by giving them access to the professional level of expertise that I never had when I was coming up. Give them that P-Zizazz feeling. This is where all those disciplines collide to create imagery that is bold, expressive, and unapologetically human.
If you want safe, predictable, and ordinary — I’m probably not your guy.
If you want to create something that actually SAYS something or IGNITES something in your fans, your followers YOU and your customer…
Let’s work.

*I (we) outsold Whitney Houston in 1997 by 2 units. In a small store located in Metro Center Mall. The manager was a close friend of ours and played our music the entire weekend in stead of only playing Whitney Houstons music. She also gave us equal counter top space which assisted at notoritety and exposure.
Also, yes. Chat gpt helped me write this🤪, ,, , a lil bit
