I began college at the University of Delaware with a major in Anthropology. I switched my major to English after taking the required freshmen English class. I loved my teacher. He was so passionate about literature and all of its symbolism and ties to everyday life that it sparked a fire in me. I switched my major at the end of the semester and graduated with a Bachelors in English. My junior year, I realized that I also loved photography. I'd always had an interest in it, but it never occurred to me that I could make it my life. With a lot of help from my dad, I was able to go to photograph school at Antonelli Institute in Pennsylvania. There, I found out how to blend my obsession to detail with my love for photography: photo-editing. After my first year, I landed the perfect summer internship with QVC, Inc. to give me more experience with photo-editing. I love editing and I think I'm great at it. The best part about it is that I'm constantly learning new and different ways to edit. It's constantly changing and it keeps me interested....
