Summary

Being born and raised in Bolivia, South America, I've been a child who was blessed to travel the world with my family and because of that, I am grateful for the outlook I have on life. Not only the good but the bad as well. My parents worked as humanitarians/missionaries and I witnessed them put their all in their job of serving others and putting their lives on the line. Because of the nature of their jobs, I naturally began taking on responsibilities alongside them as a tutor, teacher, translator and overall excited kid getting to feel included in the work. Love and patience has been a key thing in my work and views and I believe that those two aspects on myself allow me to be the best worker I can be.

Accomplishments

A few of the accomplishments I've been able to be a part of is working under certain photographers on set for big projects. Being able to be there creating a space where everyone was open, communicative and consistent in creating the best art possible has been a blessing.

Hiking/Walking/ Skydiving

These are just a few of the things I love. I am a big outdoors person and I believe in the act of walking a lot. You get to see new things around you, see  how people live and enjoy their surroundings. Being a photographer has allowed me the ability to slow down and appreciate the big and small things we take for granted like how the sun hits us and gives us joy. Now, when it comes to skidiving, I am a big thrill seeker and getting to see the world from above REALLY shows you how small everyone is and the gratitude with life really comes with the jump.
