Bio

I'm a marine biology major studying at UC Santa Cruz who's eager to pursue opportunities in marine mammal epidemiology and science communication. I am also open to opportunities involving candid event photography and portrait photography. These interests of mine drive me to help people be inspired to make their own discoveries about themselves and the world around them which is all I want to do in life.
