My diverse expertise in photography spans fashion, self-portraits, urban landscapes, cultural discovery, and commercial work. I skillfully navigate both creative personal projects and freelance bookings with meticulous planning, shooting, editing, and selection. Years of refining my photographic eye, bolstered by high-level courses such as College Level AP, have propelled me into the professional realm. My photography not only enhances my creative expression but also deepens my understanding of culture, societal issues, and diverse perspectives. I work both on individual and collaborative projects, in addition to bookings.

I co-organized and lead a lunch club at Palisades Charter High School, called Jewish-Muslim Alliance. Our purpose was to teach and learn more about Muslim and Jewish cultures, traditions, and people, in order to understand our similarities with each other, and the differences that make us beautiful. We helped build stronger bonds between the two communities that we, unfortunately, lack in many other places of the world. Prior to our first meeting, we were offered a grant from The Jewish Federation of $1,500. We used this money to organize for Kosher and Halal catering at each of our meetings, where we provided authentic shawarma and falafel sandwiches for approximately 100 attendees per meeting. My cabinet and I would create presentations for our meetings where we researched on topics in addition to the knowledge we already have. Each meeting, we presented and discussed a new topic, some including comparing basics of both religions, teaching about Passover and Ramadan and their ties, and speaking on Judaism and Islam's history's overlaps and community with each other. Many attendees have reached out to us thanking us for our work, claiming the club has helped them become more aware and accepting, more knowledgeable, and more prideful.
