A Bit About Me
I was born in Bridgeport, CT, and raised by a family of strong, independent women. I've moved around quite a bit, making me keen to adapt to different situations with a positive mindset. My upbringing inspired me to pursue a career in media to uplift my loved one's experiences and stories. The fields of digital production and social media have allowed me to experience unique opportunities I never thought possible!
