After 17 years as the forensic artist for the largest agency in Silicon Valley, I became the spokesman for the Dove Real Beauty Sketches campaign.

My forensic interview technique makes it easy for me to interview real people about how they see themselves, and how others see them more beautiful.

I’m certified by the FBI in composite art and I’ve taught detectives how to interview eyewitnesses. I’m a trained forensic hypnotist and an MBSR alum.

I’ve been on Oprah and Katie; Today Show and Good Morning America; Forensic Files and Deadline: Crime.
Lately every spring and summer, you’ll find me umpiring games at bay area high school and junior college fields.
I love music and sometimes my sons let me keep the beat on the drums. My daughter is a creative artist and she shares my mindfulness philosophy about life.

I’ve been writing about my experiences as the forensic artist for the Real Beauty Sketches campaign, and I enjoy sharing my Perspective Sketches experience with audiences around the country.
