Travel

I’ve had the wonderful opportunity of working as a Social Media and Marketing Manager for a boutique hotel in Berkeley. I also love sharing my travel experiences with my friends and followers as a sort of public journal.

To be fair I also was just getting into filming my travels at the time 🙈 This was the cutest house I’ve ever stayed in. The last clip was of the hot tub in the backyard which my friend and I got to gaze up at the stars in. If you’re ever in the Palm Springs area and need a place to stay, this is the place to be. I forgot the name, but once I find it I’ll post it in the comments!

The sun hit our building so perfectly this morning, we had to share ☀️ Our historic hotel hosts a variety of quiet spaces for you to enjoy. Work or study in our lobby, read next to the fountain in our East Courtyard, or take a stroll and admire Julia Morgan’s architectural ingenuity. #historichotel #eastbay #weddingvenue #historicweddingvenue

Collaborations

Mainly working as a concert photographer, I’ve had the pleasure of working with some of my favorite venues and artists. It has also been a joy branching out to other industries like brand activations.

Magazine Features

Some of my portrait work was published in notable independent magazines. It was a joy working with these models and the behind-the-scenes staff to help bring these visions to life.

Festival Coverage

Owning a magazine helped get me through the door to many festivals around the United States. I’ve loved traveling to new cities and being immersed by music.
