How Did I Get Here?
People are always surprised when I tell them I have 4 degrees and that my first degree is in biology? So how did I end up here?
Well, it all started It all started when I was 11 years old.
On a trip to Disney World, my father gave me his camera to take normal family vacation pictures. And little did he know I took pictures of everything but my siblings and my parents. Soon as my father saw the developed film from that trip I was officially off camera duty.
But that moment ignited a fire in me, that was the day I fell in love with storytelling, not through words but through photography.
But being the daughter of immigrants. I felt a sense of duty to follow the stereotypical route to success. So whenever I was asked what I wanted to be when I grew up I automatically screamed “DOCTOR!”. And my life slowly but surely molded to fit that path.
But deep in my heart, I knew I had a passion for storytelling.
So FOUR degrees and a lot of life experiences later I’m back on the path that was always meant for me.
There is no better feeling than to be able to do what you love. Telling stories is my fire. I live for documenting the energy and raw emotions that will be able to tell stories for generations.
