I am a fifth year journalism student and senior at the University of Texas in Austin. For the first three years of my college career, I mistakenly believed myself to be a Biomedical Engineer, and it was fun, but not real fun.
Luckily, I saw the light before it was too late and became a journalism major and a psychology minor in the fall of 2012. I think of myself as a photographer and a writer, and journalism allows me to do both. I am also pursuing a certificate in the Business Foundations Program through the McCombs School of Business. Up to this point, my experiences as both a photographer and a writer have been unofficial due to the long years spent in calculus, genetics and physics classes (among others).
For instance, I have been an unofficial, volunteer photographer for the
Georgetown High School Varsity Swim Team from the fall of 2008 to the present. As a result, thousands of swimming pictures are taking up space on my hard drive.
I am an avid reader and a technology geek. I like to peruse design and have always had an avid interest in architecture. And unless something has gone horribly wrong, I always have a camera with me.
