Most of my professional career was spent at NASA Ames Research Center as an aerospace engineer. My last project with working on the avionics systems of the Orion capsule that is part of Artemis program.

My photography has been done on trips in the Sierras, which was done on 35mm film. I fully embraced digital photography just a few years ago, and currently see myself as a novice. I’m challenged by social media so I have avoided it. This is one of the reasons I’ve signed up as a member of this website. I like the peace and quiet of nature, and find toting a camera gives more purpose to being out there.
