I am a visual storyteller, photographer, and filmmaker based in Albuquerque, New Mexico. I am currently studying photography and cinematography at the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications in Syracuse, New York. I work as a Head Video Editor at The Daily Orange and a Staff Photographer for The Newshouse.
I was raised by two teachers who taught me the importance of embracing diverse perspectives. Because of this, my storytelling is grounded in a deep empathy and the belief that all individuals deserve to have their stories recognized. As I continue to develop my creative skills, I am pursuing work that centers environmental connection, queer identity, health equality, strong community, and a dedication to positive change.
In our ever-changing digital landscape I am adapted to function in multimedia spaces. I have the capacity to work in a wide range of production stages, media platforms, creative disciplines, and softwares. This flexibility allows me to tell effective and powerful stories that can exist across analog and digital spaces.
