I am a photo/documentary journalism and sustainability student at the University of Missouri. I am a photographer and photo editor at the Columbia Missourian, and my work has been featured in publications including Vox Magazine, The Kansas City Pitch and Worthless Studios's "FREE FILM : JUNE 2020" photo book.

 

In 2021, I interned as a digital marketer for The Park Adoption Community Center and for Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge in 2022. I participated in La Trobe University's journalism program in Melbourne, Australia for the first half of 2023 and spent my time outside of class backpacking the coast and photographing the experience.

​

My passion for visual storytelling lies in the humanization of environmental issues. I aim to put a face to topics like agriculture, climate change and wildlife conservation, building a connection between people to the planet they live on. When I am not in the newsroom, I am likely out rock climbing, getting boba with friends or in the tattoo studio building my sleeve.
