About Me

—

I was born and raised in Brockport, New York. I have completed my B.F.A degree in Graphic Design and Minor in Photography at the State University of New York at Oswego in only three years.

​

This past year, I had the opportunity to intern at the Rochester Red Wings Minor League baseball team as well as, at the SUNY Oswego’s Career Services Office. I have exhibited work in the 2017 and 2018 SUNY Oswego Juried Art exhibitions, the Oswego Alumni Magazine and have presented on Cyanotype Photography at the 2018 Quest presentations. 

​

When I'm not designing, you can find me photographing nature, dancing at a concert, petting something fluffy, Pinterest-ing, hanging in a hammock or looking for my next adventure.
