Hey Friend! A bit about me..
I’m 22 years old, born and raised in sunny Southern California. I’m the second youngest of five siblings, with my twin brother being the youngest.(I’m one minuet older!)
I’ve always had a passion to create. My favorite subject in school was always art, and whenever someone asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, my answer was always ARTIST. I loved the idea of making the ordinary extraordinary, experimenting with ideas, and watching them come to life. Nowadays, my preferred medium is charcoal and graphite. I also started using oil paints during my semester abroad in Italy, experimenting with new techniques and styles.
I first picked up a camera when I was about 11 years old on my first trip to Italy. I remember being obsessed with it—gelato in one hand and my green Fujifilm digital camera in the other. Little did I know, this would be the seed that would sprout later. That love for creativity eventually led me to discover photography.
I’m a recent Spring 2026 graduate of Loyola Marymount University, where I earned my Bachelor of Arts degree with majors in Graphic Design and Photography and a minor in Art History.
My work is guided by faith and a deep love for people, and I aim to create meaningful images that celebrate life, emotion, and the beauty of imperfection.
When I'm not behind the camera, you can find me spending time with friends and family. I love exploring new places, trying delicious food, and enjoying great company. Whether I’m wandering through a new city, finding hidden gems, or relaxing with my favorite shows, I’m always inspired by life’s simple joys.

This is 2nd Grade Therese!
She said she wanted to be an artist… and she really meant it.
Now instead of crayons, she just uses a camera (and still gets just as excited).
