Born in Houston, raised in the Appalachian mountains of North Carolina and in Western Kentucky. Today, she is a Detroit, Michigan-based documentary photographer and a creative storyteller and communications strategist that prioritizes collaboration and community impact.

She studied Photojournalism and Sociology at Western Kentucky University and was an international student at the Danish School of Media and Journalism in 2014. Before working independently, she interned at The Oregonian, The Roanoke Times, The Flint Journal, The Washington Post, and the San Antonio Express-News.

Her lived-in experiences from over a decade’s worth of experience partnering with global newsrooms and national brands inform her work, and she examines economic divestment and the daily life of the American working class through long-form visual narratives and portraiture. She is available for commission internationally.
