COMMUNICATION

Over more than 20 years of customer interactions, I’ve developed a strong reputation of working with customers, clients, and vendors. Working for various clients has allowed me to expand and vary my interactions with differing clientele resulting in a confidence and demeanor most people find comfortable and easy to deal with.

RECENT Between 2006 and the present, most of my photographic work has been personal, rather than professional. These images include landscapes, portraits, interiors, and action sports (skateboarding).

Professionally, I have traveled extensively throughout Georgia and the United States delivery anything from kitchen cabinets to antiques and high-end furniture. Most recently, I worked for Elite Designer Services, based here in Atlanta, GA. Clients include some of Atlanta’s most noted interior designers. My responsibilities included the receiving and inspecting of furniture, art, and mirrors into the warehouse; installing items in houses and businesses-maneuvering furniture into varied layouts, hanging fine art and mirrors; analyzing upcoming jobs and their costs, offering estimates, and routing deliveries.

As of 2016, I began working part-time for Elite Designer Services; the rest of my time has been spent concentrating on assisting or shooting professionally, with a small amount of time as an instructor.
