Summary

Proficient Retail Sales Associate, Social Media Manager, Video Media Creator, and Event Photographer. My greatest career goal is to master the art of storytelling no matter the medium. I base my work on experimentation and intuition, channeling concepts from my energy, negative or positive, into something tangible, most often in the form of art or an experience.
