Meet the blogger

Let me start by introducing myself.

My name is Darren Whitley. I am the university photographer for Northwest Missouri State University in Maryville, Mo. I've worked here since August of 2000. My responsibilities include photography for the university website, publications, alumni association and foundation, athletics, marketing, admissions and public relations. I have a student employee who helps me do my job.

Prior to working at the university I worked for the Southwest Daily Times in Liberal, Kan., as their chief photographer.
