BIO
About Me.
I am 23 years old and I have a huge passion for design, photography, and photo/video editing. I've been doing photography as a hobby for about 7 years now. I also enjoy hiking, kayaking, quading, reading, writing, and creating art. One of my most recent accomplishments that I am proud of is hiking once a week, for 52 weeks straight. I completed this challenge from fall of 2021-2022. I am still hiking every week to see how long I can continue my streak!
I am originally from Ohio, but moved to Arizona in 2011. I feel at home here in the desert and I draw a lot of inspiration from being outdoors. I love to document our adventures and share the beauty of the southwest with others. I also own an Etsy shop - Desert Dust Design - where I make wire tree sculptures and other desert crafts.
​
After graduating high school, I decided to pursue my interest in design, and attend Central Arizona College. I have since then graduated with my Associates Degree in Applied Science for Graphic Design.

During my time at Central Arizona College, I worked as a part time graphic designer and photographer. I was also an assistant web-page editor. I was responsible for creating event flyers and posters, ads for the Casa Grande newspaper "The Dispatch", and photographing concerts and plays. I also worked as a graphic designer at Print & Sign Express. I helped create posters, business cards, invitations, t-shirts, signage, vinyl stickers, and more.
