Josh Winzeler is a lifelong Bay Area resident, having lived the majority of his life in Oakland. After graduating high school, he enrolled at Diablo Valley College where Josh was able to nurture his passion for photography and grow his skills through the Journalism program by way of Photojournalism. Back then, newspaper photography was a different beast as film was bought in 100ft. rolls and photos were processed in a darkroom. Josh became the Photo Editor for The Inquirer, DVC’s publication, as well as the Photo Editor for The Voice, Cabrillo College’s publication. Even though most of his journalistic background is with photography, the other editors at the newsrooms he worked at did let him write a few stories here and there. Life took over and brought Josh in a different direction than journalism, but stuck close to Laney to take photography related classes, and expanding his education. He has found himself back in college after some time with the hopes of honing his writing skills so that he may round out his journalism skills.
