MY STORY

Get in touch

I've always been a storyteller and artist. Photography came naturally to me. The art form was introduced to me in the form of baby pictures and fond memories of my childhood that my mom treasured forever. Time and its stubbornness push us forward and capturing that felting moment is its remedy. My eye for photography developed by aimlessly roaming around Brooklyn trying to find a perfect story. Hours spent on YouTube and student-discounted editing software, I found a new therapy through videography, photography, and graphic design. I continue to challenge myself to learn new storytelling techniques and mediums. 

​

In my formative years, I co-founded a clothing brand, Exclusive Minds. The brand has now expanded mediums from clothes to podcasts. I convey the big-picture message in my all designs. All aspects of brand management and marketing focus on influencer and customer experience. In college, I utilized campus communities, organizations, and networks to increase reach and exposure to my art and brand. I enjoyed creating experiences and visuals for my social, cultural, and academic affiliations. Hours spent on Photoshop, Lightroom, and scrubbing through each frame in Final Cut Pro were worth the product. I am a perfectionist in my craft. 

​

My professional development started at the age of 12 in my family business. I worked many retail and customer service jobs to gain real-life experiences. These roles allowed me to excel in my position as a restaurant manager and learn real estate development while in college. Currently, I work as Relationship Banker at Bank of America and at Gaonnuri. I am more in love with the journey than the destination. This is my story.
