My interest in media started when I was a kid. I loved watching movies, but I was just as fascinated by what happened behind the scenes, how everything was filmed, edited, and brought together to tell a story. As I got older, I decided to volunteer with the media team at my hometown church. That gave me the chance to get behind a camera and start creating for myself, and ever since then, I’ve been hooked. I started photography when I was 16, and from there my interest grew into videography, editing, and other areas of media production.

​

That passion eventually led me to the University of Southern Mississippi, where I earned my bachelor’s degree in Media & Entertainment Arts with an emphasis in Video Arts. During my time at USM, I had the opportunity to work on music videos, commercials, news packages, documentaries, short films, and other productions. After moving to Hattiesburg for college, I also began volunteering with the media team at my new church, which gave me another opportunity to continue creating and developing my skills outside of the classroom.

​

Fast forward to today, and I now work full-time as a photographer and videographer for Howard Industries, where I create photo and video content highlighting the people, products, and work behind one of the world’s leading power transformer manufacturers. After more than 8 years behind the camera, I’m incredibly grateful for where this journey has taken me and for every opportunity I’ve been given along the way.

​

Above all, I give all the credit and glory to God for the talents, opportunities, and experiences that have allowed me to do what I love. I’m excited to continue growing, creating, and telling stories through the work I do.
