Academic &professional experience Continued
I desire to create a dialog of what happens to a
photograph after the camera shutter is clicked;
that is how photographs are processed, edited,
and consumed. I have worked as a digital imaging
specialist, retouching photographs into idealized
images to be easily consumed through mass media.
As a working artist, I question what the implications
are of this manipulation .
