I am so excited to meet you! Originally from Cincinnati, Ohio, I grew up loving all things art. In order to pursue my creative dream, I moved to Columbia, South Carolina where I was able to expand this love for creativity in a school of people with the same passion as mine. On top of being a creative, I also pride myself on being a big animal lover, a want-to-be fashion designer, and coffee shop connoisseur.
Just like my work, I believe everything can be much more easily understood with visuals. Check out my photos below to learn a bit more about me!
Like many creatives, I am very rarely seen without my camera. My personal camera is named Eli and he's been helping me capture the world for 4 years now.
The dream started when my aunt let my 9 year-old self borrow her camera while on vacation. After chasing seagulls and capturing beachgoers for an hour, I told my mom I had to have my own camera. For my birthday that year I got a Hello Kitty themed point-and-shoot camera and I have been seeing the world through a lens ever since.
Clothing was where I first learned to express myself and I have had a creative outlet in fashion ever since. My early dream of being a fashion designer was when I first started drawing and I was gifted my first sketchbook. Although I have no hopes of returning to fashion professionally, I still have a deep love for sewing, knitting, and digging through thrift store racks.
I am also a coffee shop enthusiast. Not a coffee enthusiast, a coffee shop enthusiast. Truth be told, I get the same order every time, but I love trying new coffee houses. I even keep a detailed spreadsheet of all my favorite places, so I'm your girl for a good cafe recommendation!
This amazing group of people are the reason I am where I am today! I have been incredibly blessed with a family who has always encouraged my creativity and curiosity. I have been so lucky to grow up with amazing parents, older siblings (who have never let my life get boring), and my best furry friend Luna!
I am forever grateful to them for being my support system, hype team, and overall favorite people in the world!
