Crown Point, Indiana, United States
I graduated from Indiana University Bloomington in May 2026 with a degree in Media Advertising. During college, I worked in leadership roles focused on photography, marketing, social media, and content creation. I served as Co-Visuals Editor for the Indiana Daily Student, where I led a team of photographers and helped create visual content for both digital and print stories. I also worked as Marketing Manager for Late Nite at the IMU, planning events, managing social media, and creating promotional content to increase student engagement and attendance. Along with my leadership experience, I’ve worked with Adobe Creative Suite through both classwork and professional projects, and I also have experience with video editing and digital media production.
