​​I was born and raised in northern Virginia, but I've always had a soft spot for the states down south. I am passionate about my family and my friends, traveling the world and learning about different cultures, the art of fashion, my love for people, nature (especially trees and flowers), yoga, and learning more about myself.​ I've been told I have an eye for photography. I take pictures of things I think are worth capturing, no matter how ordinary.​ I’m interested in how we incorporate creativity into our lives every day. I see it in fashion, makeup, people's ideas, music, photographs, and even the clothes I put on every morning. I want to grow personally and professionally. I want a career that challenges me but also sparks passion, discovery, and allows me to put my unique skillset to work.

Throughout my Creative Advertising concentration, I have gained tremendous knowledge in media, arts, and design. Adobe Creative Suite is one of the tools I'm most proficient at using. The biggest takeaway in my learning is understanding that anything is possible in the creative realm. A simple idea can flourish into a beautifully crafted piece of work. My Cultural Communication minor has instilled principles and theories of communication processes that help me explain dynamics of intercultural interactions in personal and professional contexts. ​​​​
