I was born in California, but raised in Charlottesville, Virginia. I currently attend Soka University of America and am pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Humanities with a focus in Art History. I studied photography through the Charlottesville High School Career and Technical Education program for 4 years, including a self-regulated independent study in my senior year. Additionally, I began my freelance photography business, providing affordable senior portraits to graduating students. During college, I have taken film classes and continued to expand my photography business through graduation photoshoots.
