PHOTOGRAPHY IS MY LANGUAGE, PEOPLE MY STORY

 

A bit about me

 

I’m a photojournalist and visual storyteller focused on sports, culture, and human connection. A 2026 graduate of Penn State University with a degree in photojournalism, a minor in sports studies, and a certificate from the John Curley Center for Sports Journalism, I aim to create images that feel honest, immersive, and emotionally driven.

I photographed for the Associated Press covering Penn State athletics, including football, volleyball, and wrestling, and interned with The Baltimore Sun, where I set the intern record with 13 cover photos. My work has also included NBA All-Star Weekend, the Preakness Stakes, and Warner Brothers’ Wuthering Heights production, along with serving as Director of Photography for Valley Magazine.

My photography has been recognized through awards including the Ashe Awards Student Photographer of the Year, Hearst Photo One Second Place, the Keystone Media Photo Story Award, and the Golden Quill Award. Whether covering high-energy sporting events or personal moments, I’m passionate about telling stories that feel real and lasting.
