My fascination with photography has been going on as long as I can remember. I love taking pictures, being behind a lens helps you see things differently. It focuses you in on one scene or one individual or even just one flower. Looking around with photographers eyes you notice colors, shapes, textures and wonder if you can capture them so that someone else can see what you see.
I have recently discovered that I also like to write. I am currently the Photo Editor with The Express and SacCityExpress.com, the student run news vehicles for Sacramento City College. I am also a staff photographer and writer for Mainline and Mainline.com which is the student produced magazine for Sacramento City College..
