Profile Image

N.Y.S. Licensed Optician

I grew up in New York City, graduated from S.U.N.Y at New Paltz, N.Y., and have been a resident of the beautiful Hudson Valley since 1970. I entered the optical field more than 35 years ago, worked as an apprentice, and attained my New York State licensing in 1980. I particularly enjoy our gorgeous natural settings in the Hudson Valley, and avidly "document" what I see through my digital photography. My hobbies also include using my telescopes and microscopes, and just about anything with a lens! Please feel free to contact me or come in to visit Optical Fashions... I know I can use my optical knowledge and experience to design the best eyeglasses just for you.
