Photography

I commenced my journey in photography during my high school years, actively participating in my school's yearbook for a duration of three years. In my junior year, I assumed the role of Vice Editor-in-Chief, subsequently progressing to Editor-in-Chief during my senior year, overseeing both the yearbook and its staff. Following graduation, I transitioned to College Station, where I engage in freelance photography endeavors, diligently cultivating and broadening my portfolio whenever possible.
