Her journey to edit her photos usually be-
gins on her phone, before transferring to her
laptop where she switches between programs
like Photoshop and Lightroom. Along the way,
she o#en connects with other professionals in
crea3ve and technical conversa3ons. She
recently joined a
photography class
focused on concep-
tual art—interpret-
ing and rela3ng
colors and forms in
a way that is ener-
ge3c and refreshing.
Her hope is that her
work can help sus-
pend reali3es and
expand one's hori-
zons. "I've done so
many things and
reinvented myself and didn't know I had so
many capabili3es in me," she said. "I live to ex-
perience life in different ways and to see how
crea3ve I can be.
