My official journey as an artist began in 2009 in the vibrant art scene of Athens, GA, where I earned my BFA in Studio Art with a concentration in Photography from the University of Georgia. After college, I immersed myself in the historic charm of Savannah, GA where I built my photography business from the ground up, then embraced the challenge of pushing myself to grow as both an artist and entrepreneur during my two-year residency in South Korea. Returning to the Atlanta area, I focused on my career in the corporate creative marketing space, specializing in interiors, product, and event photography, with an emphasis on catalog gallery curation and digital color theory. This experience refined my eye for marketing strategy and creative execution, ultimately informing my recent work in communications, which has provided a unique understanding of visual communication and brand storytelling.
