Since picking up a camera in 2020, I’ve built a diverse portfolio spanning portraiture, live events, and editorial assignments.
I’ve documented stories that range from intimate, personal moments to high-energy public events—approaching each with a sharp, intuitive eye for visual storytelling. My work has earned multiple awards and nominations from the Chicago Chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists, including Best Use of Feature Video, Best Use of Social Media, and Best Social or Short-Form Video. My work has been published nationally and featured in various gallery exhibitions. |
