As a Mexican American growing up in the Yakima Valley, I’m the oldest son of farmworkers who taught me the true meaning of hard work from day one. My parents always championed my creativity and supported my artistic drive, laying the foundation for everything I’ve built today.
That support took a defining step forward for my 19th birthday in 2018, when I bought myself my very first camera. That purchase marked the official beginning of my photography journey, sparking a passion that quickly evolved from a personal hobby into a relentless pursuit of visual storytelling.
Today, I’ve transformed that milestone into a full-time career as a professional multimedia specialist, alongside extensive freelance experience. Whether I'm capturing high-profile events, or producing commercial photo and video content, I get to live out my childhood dream every single day—combining my heritage, my hard work, and my camera to tell powerful stories.
