I have a taste for the different and a taste for the fun.

Photography, Journalism and Graphic Design are my thing.

What is unique that's not in your bio?
love cats :)
What's your favorite accomplishment?
Getting into University and Being asked to write for the school paper
How do you define cool?
I define cool as just being yourself. Doing what you love and being you, are a trend all in itself.
What is your secret to uncovering trends?
I just pay very close attention to detail. I look around on the streets and media as my two biggest resources. Paying attention to different cultures is also a great way to learn new trends.
What do you enjoy most about Trend Hunter?
I like that it is completely unique. Any person can come on this website and find something that they can relate to. It's amazing.
What is your favorite trend?
Anything to do with photography I love.
What inspires or excites you?
Nature. I love anything to do with the sky (sun, clouds, stars, moon) It makes me feel like I'm more than just this one person. It is also very peaceful.
