I am originally from Laurel, MS. I was homeschooled all the way to college. I did 2 years at Jones County Junior College playing on the tennis team. I finished my college career with 2 years at Mississippi State. While in Starkville, I worked for a video production company. I have always had an interest in photography, but working there and being around all the camera gear got me fired up and ready to get my own gear.
