Who Am I?

For the majority of my life, I've been in school, but that's all about to come to an end. Who am I without school? Does it even matter who I am after school? Will I just end up doing what I did during school to scrape by? Do I even want to aspire to more? It's not that I don't have goals, it's just that I feel lost within the possibilities.


Career Goals: I really want a flexible career. Something that I can work as little or as many hours as I'd like. I also want to do something that's easy to get in-the-zone with. As a dog photographer and jill-of-all-trades at Idaho Jewels Poodles and Red Carpet Doodles, I find a really amazing flow when I get really into what I'm doing. While what I do right now is amazing, I know that nothing lasts forever.

Education Experience: I attended Jefferson County School District growing up, and graduated from Rigby High School in the class of 2016. Throughout Jr. High and High school, I participated in the choir. I moved up from the Rigby Jr. High Choir to the Troyalirs auditioned choir, and then to the even-higher Chamber Singers choir. I loved to sing in high school.

While I still love to sing, I no longer participate in choirs in college. During Spring semester of 2016, I auditioned and participated in a choir called From the Heart. This choir was student-led, but I didn't feel that my vocals were being improved upon, and I felt even more so, that our practices were useless. I enjoyed performing every week, but I didn't enjoy that I didn't feel prepared for it as our practices were ongoing even after the performances.

I've been attending Brigham Young University since Fall semester 2016 and will be graduating in Winter semester 2020. That's right. I graduate in the next couple of months. I'm scared. I'm excited. I'm sad. I'm happy. It's a confusing time.

Philosophy: If you're going to do something, I believe that you should do it as much justice as you possibly can. When you are passionate about something, you should aspire to do something about it. I'm passionate about dogs and I like to take pictures and decorate. Because of this, being a dog photographer has been kind of like a dream come true. I'm also passionate about critiquing media. I strive to use this platform in order to showcase my ideas and thoughts on popular movies, TV, games, and music.
