My Story

From a tender age, I have harbored a profound affinity for writing. I can vividly recall my earliest experiences with the written word, where in Kindergarten, I eagerly participated in our daily "writing workshop." My passion for English and Language Arts grew rapidly, and I found myself excelling in these subjects with ease. I was elated to have my pieces selected for my school's prestigious "Writers Review" each month, a testament to my innate ability to craft captivating narratives. Remarkably, at the age of 11, I had already surpassed a reading level typical of someone in 12th grade.

During my high school tenure, I joined the debate team and went on to become the team's president in my senior year. Through sheer dedication and hard work, I emerged victorious in several events and clinched numerous "best speaker" awards at competitions held in Orlando, Florida, and Washington, D.C. As if that wasn't enough, I also served as Chief Editor of my high school's yearbook for two consecutive years, where my exceptional leadership skills helped to sell over 6,000 copies during my tenure.

In 2019, I secured a highly coveted internship opportunity as a Communication and Marketing Intern for Food Trucks of America, based in Boston. I had the privilege of honing my communication skills while acquiring valuable insights into the intricacies of marketing in the food industry.

Currently, I am pursuing a degree in Communication Studies at the University of Alabama, where I have further refined my skills across the board, poised to take on new challenges in my field of expertise.

At the age of eight, my parents gifted me a digital Sony camera, which ignited a passion for photography that has remained fervent to this day. I cherished that little camera, taking it with me wherever I went, capturing life's precious moments through my lens. However, my life was transformed when I turned 15, and my parents presented me with a T-12 Sony Camera, which has been my loyal companion ever since.

Under the expert guidance of J Thomas Lopez, a distinguished photography professor at the University of Miami, I had the privilege of undergoing an intensive training program from 2015 to early 2020, where I acquired a wealth of knowledge and technical expertise in the art of photography. I am immensely grateful to him for imparting valuable insights into the nuances of photography, and for sparking my interest in the field of Graphic Design.

My proficiency in Graphic Design has grown exponentially, and I have since designed campaign posters for student government, established my former high school's yearbook page templates, and even launched a small business creating customized signs for 21st birthdays. My passion for creativity and design continues to drive me forward, fueling my desire to excel in my chosen career path.
