Photographer, Artist, Environmentalist
I am a photographer born and raised in Winston Salem, North Carolina, with familial roots in some of my favorite places of New Orleans and Shreveport, Louisiana as well as Gulf Breeze, Florida. These various cities in the Southern U.S. are all places I call home and have fond memories of growing up and spending time with my family. I believe my calling to photography came when I took my very first photo of my parents when I was 2. This instance always stands out to my parents and I because the photo turned out very well-framed and straight, much to their surprise. For as long as I can remember, I have been interested in photography, but didn't learn or practice it more seriously until 2015 after taking an introductory photography class in high school. Later, I studied Art with a focus in Photography and additionally majored in Environmental Studies at Guilford College in Greensboro, NC; graduating in May 2021.
As an environmentalist, I am especially concerned with the waste crisis as well as overconsumption prevalent in modern society and my home life. I currently shoot on my Nikon D7500 digital camera with a Nikkor 18-300mm lens and my Nikon N60 film camera (develop my film with the Caffenol process); editing photos with Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop.
