I am a self motivated photojournalist with over ten years experience working with local and national news media, with a demonstrated initiative to go beyond the assignment to generate strong photographs and video. At age 27, I have been influenced and mentored my entire life by professionals in the field, which has given me a sharp sense of photojournalistic expertise. Various managers whom I have worked for, have remarked about how well organized I am, and the fact that I can change my priorities when necessary to accommodate deadlines and other pressures that arise in the job from day to day.
