What I'm looking for

I seek a role leveraging field photography and documentation in a professional team that values independence, attention to detail, client communication, and opportunities to grow technical and customer-facing skills.

I am an experienced photographer and field researcher with a background in real estate photography, insurance claims documentation, and hospitality field research. I have provided visual and market-intelligence services to exclusive client rosters and remote employers.

I bring strong communication and interpersonal skills, proven ability to work independently, and a consistent record of performing under pressure. I have experience coordinating with clients, policy holders, and local officials to secure necessary documentation.

My hands-on roles in retail and hospitality taught me customer service, teamwork, and operational reliability, while my remote positions developed self-motivation, discipline, and goal orientation.

I am determined to apply and expand my skills in a professional environment where attention to detail, dependable fieldwork, and photographic documentation are valued.
