Photographer

Years working with TEDxPortsmouth: 6

Role on the team: Photography

What do you do when you are not working on TEDx? I am a portrait photographer in the Greater Seacoast area of New Hampshire. I have always enjoyed creative outlets and have a degree in fashion design from the Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC. To me, fashion design and photography are related, you are curating and creating a look that will hopefully make someone feel wonderful about themselves. In this media driven world, I believe that everyone, regardless of what they do, should have great images of themselves that they love.

Favorite TED Talk ever: Oh – that’s a tough one!! Erin Santini Bell’s Reimagining the Job of Bridges for a More Sustainable Future

Favorite part of TEDxPortsmouth: Community

And, if you could see any historical figure, living or dead, give a TED Talk who would it be and what would they talk about?Betty Friedan, Bella Abzug – feminists from the 60s, radical feminists!!
