Career
I continued my pursuit for an art education at New Hampshire Institute of Art in Manchester, NH. I did freelancing for several years along with finding other photography and art based jobs across that time. Some of those positions being family, tourist and product photography. For the last 2.5 years I have branched into the field of periodontal dentistry where I was able to use my bachelor’s to photograph surgical cases, create a website for the practice and did graphic design for marketing purposes of our educational sector of the practice. During my career search, I crafted several deeply meaningful artistic projects since graduating - mostly consisting of self portraiture. My success is contained in my ability to find my craft in various industries and staying dedicated to my creative journey.
