I received my bachelor’s in photojournalism from Southern Illinois University and am a freelance photojournalist living in East Tennessee. I was raised 45 minutes south of Chicago, Illinois in a funeral directing family and am excited to be alive. My goal is to spread knowledge, practice empathy and broaden my awareness of human experiences that differ from mine through listening and storytelling.
