About

I am a New York-based photographer and videographer specializing in sports, events, and social media content. Through my work with Rutgers University, EmilysCamera, and other creative teams, I have developed experience capturing compelling visual stories, coordinating photo shoots, editing images, and delivering polished content that reflects each client’s creative vision. I enjoy collaborating with athletes, coaches, clients, and production teams to create engaging and authentic work.

I also bring experience in social media advertising, audience engagement, project coordination, equipment management, scheduling, and budget tracking. I am comfortable working with Adobe Creative Cloud, Microsoft Office, Canva, WordPress, Google Workspace, and Monday, and I am currently pursuing a Master of Science in Childhood Education at Touro University. I am friendly, organized, adaptable, and motivated by opportunities to combine visual storytelling with meaningful collaboration.
