Like many others at the shop, my background has been fairly diverse. My original major at Rutgers was a study in laser-plasma interraction and cold fusion. However midway through my sophmore year while traveling in Germany, I met Thomas Treuhaft who was representing an American model from New York who was doing a photoshoot for the Modelwerk agency in Hamburg. I then spent the remainder of the year in Germany shooting both advertising and video for European Brands.

After returning to the U.S. I had long lost the desire to become a rocket scientist and finished college with a degree in business administration.
