About Info
As as artist I strive to create images that show my inner vision of life’s story. I want to create emotion and a retrospective on how we live our day to day life.
Professional I developed sound expertise through years of learning. I successfully used my
Summary knowledge to teach a multitude of classes; increasing profit margins for employers.
Entrepreneurship came naturally to me, and I excelled as an independent scrapbook retail store owner and professional photographer. This career path gave me experience in business management, working with employees and coordinating large, product-based events, photography for clients along with my own personal projects, and marketing. This all resulted in my being a successful owner/operator of my own scrapbook retail store and then professional photographer.
