I've been around a camera since childhood, inspired by my father who captured our adventures wherever we went. I loved those moments when he entrusted me with his camera, allowing me to document our lives through my eye with his lens. As I grew older, my passion for photography flourished. Pursuing this passion led me to Metropolitan State University of Denver, where I earned a degree in photojournalism. During my senior year, I was honored with an award for a breaking news story, earning first place nationally. I have continued to document journalism but also families, couples, events and anything involving moments with people.
