so far...
MBB Studios was officially founded by accident when I left college to pursue my life in the arts. Luckily, I had a background in photography. Educationally, I studied business at UC Berkeley and Music at USC.
I was never taught photography in an educational setting but as a child trained my eye to see the world beautifully. Although an unconscious implication, I think that's where my work stands alone.
