Photography/Social Media
I uncovered two creative passions that have reshaped the way I tell stories: behind-the-scenes photography and social media design. I’ve served as the BTS photographer for a wide variety of events—from live TV episodes and Greek life gatherings to BroadwayCon and other major productions—capturing the energy, emotion, and details that often go unnoticed.
At the same time, I’ve been diving deeper into the art of social media, experimenting with content creation that blends visual appeal with strategic messaging. Using tools like Canva, Photoshop, and InDesign, I’ve developed a series of posts that reflect both creativity and an understanding of audience engagement. These experiences have allowed me to build a growing portfolio of work that fuses storytelling with design, both in still images and digital content.
Photography
This semester, I focused heavily on behind-the-scenes photography, capturing the energy and detail of live productions and major events. I served as the BTS photographer for Hofstra Today, a morning talk show, where I documented everything from pre-show setups to live moments on set.
Beyond the studio, I covered a variety of dynamic events through both photography and storytelling. Highlights include documenting the vibrant St. Patrick’s Day celebration in Mineola, NY and capturing the excitement of BroadwayCon 2025. These experiences deepened my eye for candid, impactful visuals and strengthened my ability to tell compelling stories—both through the lens and on the page.

Social Media
The posts to the right are inspired by a project called Cause Collage, which challenges designers to reimagine existing content in new formats to unlock fresh creative perspectives. My chosen cause, mental health, highlights the challenges of growing up under the influence of power-hungry adults. Through this concept, I developed a series of visual pieces and social media assets designed to raise awareness and spark meaningful conversations across various digital platforms.
These posts were created for extracurricular productions and media organizations. The first introduces the key crew roles behind a live show, giving audiences a behind-the-scenes look at the team that brings it all together. Next to it is a straightforward “We’re Hiring” graphic designed to help recruit a new associate communications director for a television network. Both pieces aim to communicate clearly while maintaining a polished, on-brand visual style.
