I am involved with the photographic community on local, regional and national level. I am currently treasurer and webmaster of the Greater Bridgeport Camera Club; member of the New Haven Camera Club; secretary of the Connecticut Association of Photographers; and a Vice President on the board of the New England Camera Club Council. I am also active in the Photographic Society of America and is the Camera Club & Council News Columnist for the PSA “Journal”.

My photos have won many awards and competitions in the past few years in both local club competitions and international salons. I have over 125 acceptances in PSA-sanctioned exhibitions, and have also received four bronze stars and one silver star for my journalistic efforts. In 2008 I received an honors distinction of Master Member of the New England Camera Club Council (MNEC) during its annual conference and in 2012 received the PSA Service Award. In September, 2013, I was awarded the distinction of APSA from the Photographic Society of America at their annual conference.

I currently teach for the Milford and North Haven Adult Education programs as well as at local camera clubs and many regional conferences. I enjoy being active in the photographic community and helping others find the joy and satisfaction in taking and perfecting beautiful images.
