"I grew up in the darkroom of my family's newspaper company in the United States. In the early 90s I went to art school in Italy. After many years as an art director, in 2005 I decided to leave Young & Rubicam Madrid to follow my dream of becoming a commercial photographer.

From there I went on to work for all the major ad agencies in Spain, having created campaigns for clients like Chevrolet, Fanta, Land Rover and many others. Before moving back to Italy in 2010, I had already began working for international clients such as Nike, MasterCard and Eden, just to name a few.

From 2010 to the present day I have worked very hard to follow my childhood dream to become an automotive photographer. It is a very competitive world out there, but I have had the pleasure to have worked for some of the most iconic car manufacturers in the world. I have shot for some of the legends: Ferrari, Porsche and Pininfarina.

My love for creating art has taken me to shoot worldwide campaigns for MG, Nike, Runner’s World, Yamaha and many more."
