I am a senior at Paul Laurence Dunbar High in Lexington, and I was previously a student at Monache High in Porterville, California. I have had an interest in photography since I was in the 7th grade. I have competed nationally for photography and have gotten an honorable mention. I hope to become a kindergarten teacher and do wedding photography over summer breaks. I hope to continue making art in the form of photos!
