EDUCATION

I am an expert in photographic pre-production through post-production, specializing in training proficient workflow processes and database management for Adobe Lightroom Classic. Additionally, I educate professionals in web design, management, social media content creation, in-person sales techniques, and customer experience.

I am currently a Ph.D. (candidate) in K12 Educational Leadership through Regent University with a robust understanding of developing effective and efficient long-term educational programs. One day, I envision creating a professional photography educational program tailored to adult learners that encompasses business, marketing, and photographic education. I hold a Master of Education (Ed.S) in Educational Supervision from Regent University, a Master of Business Administration in Marketing and Project Management from Brenau University, and a Bachelor of Science in Workforce, Education, and Development with a Specialization in Training from Southern Illinois University at Carbondale. I spent 20 years in the U.S. Navy as a Photojournalist, Broadcast Journalist, and Public Relations Officer. I have a graduate certificate in Communications from The University of Oklahoma and advanced education in Journalism, Videography, and Photography.
