About
During my sophomore year of high school, I moved halfway across the globe to Al Ain, United Arab Emirates. I lived there for 3 years, and received my high school diploma from Gulf International Private Academy. During the 3 years I lived there, I had the opportunity to travel to Sri Lanka, Egypt, Oman, and Italy. After graduating high school, I then moved back to Illinois to attend college at the Illinois Institute of Art in Chicago to fulfill my career path of becoming a professional Photographer.
