I was born and raised in Rhode Island and have been a proud lifelong resident of Cranston, where I still live in my childhood home with my wife Jodie—also a native Rhode Islander—our two teenage sons, our golden doodle Marley, our cat Roxy, and our three backyard chickens.
My passion for the arts led me to study both music and photography in college. Afterward, I built a career in home improvement, eventually spending 15 years as a manager and representative for Sherwin-Williams. Throughout that time, I balanced work and family life while continuing to pursue my creative interests.
I’ve always loved everything this small but vibrant state has to offer. That love inspired me to co-produce Discover Rhode Island, an award-winning documentary created with my brother, celebrating the unique charm of the Ocean State.
