I grew up in the small town of Inman, KS, where I have always loved various forms of art, especially visual and musical art. As I moved through middle school, I got the itch to play around with my parents' DSLR. While it may not have been the highest-level camera, it inspired me to begin capturing moments to freeze them in time so that they can be enjoyed forever. Over the years and throughout my college career at the University of Kansas, I have honed my craft and gained opportunities to capture both personal and professional stories for organizations such as the University of Kansas Hockey Club, Wichita Thunder Hockey, and local events in Kansas.
