As the son of blind parents, I have a lifetime of experiences with the blind community.  Although my parents will never see my work, they have supported me and my efforts since I started photographing at 8 years of age. 

After witnessing many encounters where my parents had to overcome the prejudice and ignorance of others, I decided to use my energy, skills and knowledge as a photojournalist to make a permanent difference in the way blindness and blind people are perceived by the general public.
