I also have a good deal of experience operating traditional and digital photo studios. In my most recent employment with eVox Productions, I was in charge of starting, from the ground up, interactive photo studios in Detroit, NYC and London, England. It was a challenging and rewarding experience. Of the many responsibilities I was handed, I was successful in securing leases for these studios, recruiting skilled employees, obtaining and maintaining suppliers, facilitating process team meetings and maintaining capital budgets. While at eVox I was at various times facility lead at all three studios, I was Operations Manager for London, as well as a Project, Post Production and Photography Lead on a wide variety of interactive projects. Before venturing into the world of pixels, I worked as a freelance commercial and documentary photographer. As a commercial photographer, my major clients included universities, museums, galleries and hospitals. My most photographic experience comes as a documentary photographer. I am quite comfortable working in a darkroom and have created several bodies of work that have been exhibited in galleries in New York , Los Angeles, Mexico City and Lyon, France.
