He was also a member of the Pierce Law Review. He now lives and works in New York City, although he spent most of his youth in Grand Haven, Michigan.

In his spare time, his hobby is taking pictures. He has taken thousands of photographs of lighthouses, city skylines, and landscapes over the past several years. In 2004, he started taking panoramic photos and selling his work. In November 2004, he listed his first item on eBay, a panoramic photo of the Grand Haven Lighthouse at sunset, which sold right away. Since that time, he now has his own eBay store where he offers a wide selection of panoramic photos and has built a strong reputation as an eBay Seller.
