About Me

For more of my pictures check out www.cohanweb.com
...I'm an easy going, laid back, drama-free individual. I've been told I'm genuine. I take pride in constantly challenging myself, or learning something new. My careers are definitely my number one priority (I'm a photographer and a computer dork!), but I also like to cut loose now and then. I'm currently working on a Lordship of Photography at ECP University. I admire people who seek out their goals and end up surpassing their expectations. My sense of humor may be a little strange, but at least I can crack myself up. My health is the most important thing in my life. If I'm not at the gym you can probably find me running, hiking, or doing yoga. Love to travel as much as possible. That is what weekends were created for. Love music. There is nothing better than discovering a great album that you can vibe to from start to finish. Or a song that gives you the chills every time you hear it. Love a good beer after a long day. Love life and all the awesome people I've met along the way :)
