About
I am a multifaceted photo editor, retoucher, project manager, and researcher with over 10 years of experience in high-pressure environments. I curate, edit, and manage visual assets for editorial and commercial projects, with a strong background in digital asset management (DAM), visual storytelling, and cross-functional collaboration.
I have delivered for Twitch, Rent The Runway, Vanity Fair, The Sun, Daniel Arsham, and NOWNESS, developing retouching styles, sourcing archival imagery, and driving efficient DAM workflows. I thrive on turning complex briefs into cohesive narratives and delivering timely visuals that elevate brand storytelling while improving process efficiency.
