Education

The Illinois Institute Of Art - Schaumburg

Bachelor of Fine Arts in Digital Photography

Graduated with Honors
3.9/4.0 GPA

I was lucky to have been granted a half-ride scholarship by the Illinois Institute of Art to study digital photography while still an exchange student in Riverton, Illinois.

At the Illinois Institute of Art I worked as a laboratory aide, as a student ambassador, and was active for a while in the graphic design student group. I volunteered as a photographer at multiple school and student group events as well as charity events outside the school, such as a fundraiser dinner for Saint Jude Children's Research Hospital

Besides studying digital photography production and post production in college, I also took basic graphic design and film classes.

I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a 3.9 GPA in December, 2013, and was employed the very next year as an architectural photographer at ImageFiction.
