    Biography: Born and raised in central Mississippi, I now live in Slidell, LA. I received a BS in Mechanical Engineering from Mississippi State University, after which I went to work for Lockheed Martin in New Orleans.

    I am married with 2 children (currently my daughter is 8 y.o. and my son is 6 y.o.).

    I have always been interested in photography, but I really started taking pictures with my first digital camera a few years ago. I also have an old Honeywell Pentax SP1000 35mm that I like to play with.

    My other hobbies include automobiles, audio/video electronics, computers, mountain biking and participating in most of the traditional sports. However, I do not like to watch them on TV :-)
