Photography Work
As a photographer, I specialize in bright, energetic family sessions as well as more artistic composite work that explores darker, mood-driven and imaginative themes. Working directly with clients has strengthened my communication skills, time management, and ability to guide people confidently while delivering a clear creative vision. Photography has trained me to pay close attention to lighting, color, and detail. Skills that directly translate into print production and branding work, while also teaching me how to balance creativity with client expectations and deadlines in a professional setting.
I’m a Graphic Communications student at Clemson University with a strong focus on print production and a growing passion for sales within the printing industry. My coursework and hands-on experience have given me a solid foundation in prepress, color management, digital and conventional press workflows, and production problem-solving.
I’m especially interested in the intersection of technical execution and client strategy. Where strong communication, product knowledge, and attention to detail come together to deliver successful print solutions. I’m driven by efficiency, precision, and building relationships, and I’m excited to contribute both technical expertise and a customer-focused mindset to a forward-thinking print organization.

project spotlight
Through developing Everyday Hydration, I learned how to think beyond design and approach a project from a strategic, market-driven perspective. I analyzed positioning, target audience behavior, and shelf impact while ensuring the packaging was production-ready and aligned with real-world print considerations. This project strengthened my ability to connect branding decisions with business outcomes—an approach I bring to every opportunity, combining technical print knowledge with a sales-oriented mindset focused on delivering measurable value.
Everyday Hydration / Consumer Packaged Goods Project
I developed the brand strategy, visual identity, and packaging system to clearly communicate differentiation on the shelf—focusing on clean design, straightforward messaging, and strong visual hierarchy to support purchasing decisions. This project demonstrates my ability to think beyond aesthetics by aligning branding, positioning, and packaging design with target audience needs and market opportunity.
