I was born and raised in San Francisco. I received my first dark room experience at School of the Arts High School (major in music playing tuba). Upon graduating from UC Santa Cruz with a BA in Language Studies in 2008, I began an event photography internship with SF Station, which allowed me to pursue my passion of photographing concerts. Around the same time, I started to take photo classes at CCSF while working full time. I have now decided to continue to pursue photography while also getting a degree in Graphic Design.
