I was born in Springfield, Missouri, on October 19, 2002. In 2014, I moved to Tennessee with my mother and former stepfather to a small town called Pegram. I pursued a career in concert and marching bands throughout middle school and high school. After graduating from high school in 2021, I moved to Chattanooga to study photography and art history at the University of Tennessee Chattanooga. Starting with my obsession with recreating poetry through photography, I developed a love for the subtle details of life, focusing on architecture in foreign countries.
