I was born and raised in Phoenix, AZ and began taking photos at the ripe age of 13. Through many backyard photoshoots with friends, I developed a love for capturing my friends' pure joy.
Over the last 10 years, I have grown to love my job as a photographer. Starting my business at 16 years old, I quickly became my friends' personal photographer, capturing family holiday cards, senior photos, theatrical performances, and more. I loved that I was helping others save such special memories forever.
I recently graduated from Boston University [yikes! scary!], and am about to continue my studies at Arizona State University, in their master's program focused in Gifted Education & Curriculum. I have really embraced the opportunities I have had to work with young children through my Elementary Education degree, and am looking forward to continuing my training to hopefully have my own classroom in the near future!! Teaching kids about how the world works has opened my eyes just as much as theirs.
