Work History

2024 - Present

Producer // Freelance

Jumping into a decade-plus old passion, I embraced photography as hobby and grew it into a small side-business. Early on, I focused on businesses but grew my service offerings to work with individuals as well. Winning a few local photography competitions - my hobby turned side-job has been taking off.
