Lee was born on a farm in Fort Wayne, Indiana in 1965. Shortly after his 18th birthday, his family moved to Charleston, South Carolina. Having been accepted into the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy, he quickly left the relative quiet of South Carolina and headed for the big city lights of New York.

After graduation, he joined the Navy where he was commissioned as an Ensign. While serving in Desert Storm he was decorated for outstanding performance and leadership. After Desert Storm, Lee came off active duty to pursue a career in the private sector.

After teaching himself various computer programming languages, he started his technology career as a programmer, working on several infrastructure systems. He served as a corporate instructor; assisting developers to upgrade their skill set by learning new programming languages. Then, migrating from programming to systems engineering, he started working as Director of Technology for various companies in the investment banking community and in the bond industries. He has also spent several years as the Chief Technology Officer for a bond insurance company. Currently, Lee is President/CEO of SOX Complete, LLC., a SOX and technology consulting firm.

Lee started his photography career with the horrendous events of September 11, 2001. While photographing pictures of the North Tower from his 47th floor vantage point across the street, he watched helplessly as the second jet flew past, impacting the South Tower. You can see some of his published works in the 9-11 gallery.

After that event he started noticing different photographic opportunities and began to carry a camera at all times. When he is not out riding his motorcycle, you can usually find him on his boat or Scuba diving. These kinds of activities allow him to shoot his favorite subject -- the outdoors. The lighting, contrast and colors of sunrises and sunsets, have provided spectacular images -- some of which can be seen in the galleries Clouds, Beaches, and Sunrise/Sunset.

In 2002 he became a certified Scuba Instructor. By slipping his digital camera in a waterproof case, he was able to expand the photographic world underwater. The Underwater Gallery contains many interesting photographs from around the world. Lee is also a featured lecturer on the subject of underwater photography and Post Shooting Processing.
