Welcome to my ramblings…

No matter how many interesting places I visit, the beauty of both the land and the people in it never ceases to amaze me. While I’ve always loved portraying this through the written word, with new advances in modern photo-technology it’s now possible to capture just a bit of that beauty to visually share with the world as well. Every chance I get, I can be found traveling the globe to document these uniques places and people with both the eye of the lens and the power of the pen.

Is it real?

People often ask if my artwork is “real.” To me, photography is about more that portraying an exact image of what you see with your eyes… It’s about portraying the “atzmus” or essence of the people and places that you meet along your journey through life. It’s about ART, and if I can help others visually see just a little bit the indescribable internal beauty of G-d’s creations… it doesn’t get more real than that.

What else?

Although photography and writing are my passion, I come from an engineering background. I am blessed with the opportunity to also share with others how G-d and science are not two opposite extremes, and I’m open to traveling for the purpose of spreading that beauty throughout the world as well. See my “Torah Tech” section for more on this beautiful collision of extremes.

When I’m not photo-hunting, writing, or resolving the contradictions of the universe, you’ll find me studying Engineering Management and Systems at Columbia University in New York and living and learning in the heart of American Jewry: Brooklyn, New York.
