FALL 2024: ITALY STUDY ABROAD

SOMETHING I ENJOY IS TAKING PICTURES and travel...

Freezing a moment in life forever! I can look back at the photos I took and it’s like living that moment again. Laughter, friends, peace, it can all be captured! There’s something different and magical that happens when you look through the lens and voila! Details, moments, another point of view... I draw inspiration from my photos and travels to design...
