Chad's bio:
Chad Jenkins is a native Vermonter, born and raised in St. Albans. He describes himself as a “wicked amateur” when it comes to photography. Chad’s first serious experience in photography came in 2000. He went with the Vermont Army National Guard Public Affairs Unit on a humanitarian mission to Belize, Central America. He signed on as a “tripod bearer” but ended up taking thousands of photos. Chad chose this medium because “I can’t paint, and my clay modeling skills are limited to snakes.” Chad spends most of his free time gardening and traveling. Chad works full-time for the Army National Guard and lives in St. Albans with his wife and daughter.
