Before the systems, the lens.

A decade behind a camera: combat-deployment flight decks and Naval Academy ceremonies as a Navy mass communication specialist, plus portrait work in the years since. The discipline is the same one I bring to systems: understand the situation, frame the useful thing, and deliver under pressure.

This is the media-ops side of the story: visual judgment, deadline work, documentation instincts, and the ability to make messy reality readable.
