I'd love to introduce myself to you all! I was born and raised in Youngstown, Ohio, and now I live in Macedonia, Ohio. I am a language nerd. I received my Bachelor's degree in Italian Education from Youngstown State University with a minor in linguistics and certification in teaching TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages). I also received my Master's in English from Youngstown State in Spring 2023.

​

So, as you can tell, I love teaching. It's always been a passion of mine along with photography! I didn't know I had such a love for photos until I went to Italy in the Summer of 2017. While I was there, I bought a nice camera and went on a picture-taking binge. When I showed people my photos, they told me that I had such a talent and an eye for taking photos. This experience showed me that photography was something that I should and wanted to pursue.

   Some other random stuff about me? Hmm. Well, I got married to my best friend in August 2020, and we adopted our son, Theo, in December 2025. I am a huge cat person. I have two furbabies named Han Solo and Luke. I love pizza and pasta with all of my heart. Let me tell you, I am probably one of the BIGGEST Jonas Brothers fans out there. Joe Jonas even picked my husband to sing with last year at their concert in Cleveland. INSANE. The video is on my Instagram, haha! I am also a very hard-working person and definitely a people person. I would love to work with you and make your picture dreams come true! Fill out a contact form and let's talk!
