PERSONAL BRAND
EXPLORATION
I am originally from a small town located in Southern
Pennsylvania called Quarryville. It is a very small town mostly
populated by the elderly, meaning new things and modern ideas
aren’t widely accepted there. Growing up in this town was hard
as someone who was raised to be who I want and to always
remember that I am my own person. I especially realized this
when I realized, at the time, that my dream goal was to be a
movie director. Everyone doubted me and my dreams, and since
then I have made it my goal to make sure everyone knows that
they are worthy of their dreams and their abilities. I am now a
photographer and digital marketer, my goal is to make the
impossible, possible for myself and others who might need it.
