Ever since attending my first concert at the age of nine (Hannah Montana, for those curious), I knew I wanted to build a career in music. Over the years, I’ve explored that passion through many lenses—first as a concert photographer, and later expanding into production and artist management.

In my 10 years as a photojournalist, I’ve had the privilege of capturing some incredible moments on stage. My work has included photographing Trippie Redd’s tour, H.E.R.’s Lights On Festival, the Joyce Wrice & Lucky Daye Tour, and Rolling Loud LA 2021, which featured J. Cole, Playboi Carti, Jack Harlow, and Chris Brown. In 2023, I also covered the Blue Note Jazz Festival in Napa, which brought together legends like Mary J. Blige, Chance the Rapper, Robert Glasper, and Cordae.

Live music has always been my greatest source of joy. There’s something magical about hearing a song you love performed live, feeling the energy of the crowd, and capturing the happiness that music brings to people. That joy is what continues to drive my passion for working in the music industry.
