My journey began behind the lens as a self taught photographer and videographer, capturing everything from high energy sporting events to indie short films. That “do it yourself” spirit eventually led me to GVSU’s LendGR program, where I realized I loved more than just taking photos and videos. I loved helping entrepreneurs tell their stories. After diving deep into the Chicago hospitality scene with Ateema Media & Marketing, I found my niche: creating content that highlights the human element behind the brand. I’m lucky enough to work with a diverse range of brands, taking ideas from a rough sketch to a polished social presence that truly resonates with an audience. The through line of helping a community through visual storytelling is what drives me to continue pursuing my passion.
