I grew up in Chelmsford, Massachusetts and started working with digital cameras and digital art in high school. This is what really sparked my interest in art. I went on to study graphic design at the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA). Attending MICA allowed me to refine my drawing, painting, and general fine art skills. I use these skills in my photography to create strong compositions made up of light, color, and abstract shapes. Many of my photographs are local to metro-Boston, but are shot from abstract angles to bring a new look and feel to common sites. My photography work progressed using an old digital camera and a website, "This side up: A digital sketch book." Many of my first photographs focused on snow at night and urban transportation, still two of my favorite subject matters.

Today I live in Boston and work full time as an IT professional at a local software development company. In addition to my full time job, I continue to do freelance photography, graphic design, and photo restoration. My most recent endeavor is co-founding WardMaps.com, a family run business.

In the future I will continue to expand my art across multiple mediums including oil paintings and photo animations.
