It is truly a privilege to be able to showcase my work through my exhibition here at Sacred Heart. I am extremely grateful to Professor Falco for allowing me this opportunity, the process of creating this has been such a fun experience.
On one of the boards is a photo story that I did for Falco’s class during the fall semester of 2022. I chose to showcase the Women’s Division I Equestrian Team here at Sacred Heart, which I am a part of. While our sport primarily takes place off campus and is not widely known, I felt like it was important to take the opportunity to showcase the hard work and dedication of the team. The team works tirelessly at practice, lifts, horse shows, and in the barn aiming to earn a spot at the National Collegiate Equestrian Association and the Intercollegiate Horse Show Association national championships each year. One of our most prominent team values is “play for each other” and I strived to emulate this within my story.
The other board showcases some of my miscellaneous work over the past couple of years, as well as my work for the Easton Courier. I have been fortunate enough to be an intern for the Easton Courier for the past two years. Through this experience I have been able to develop my skills as a photojournalist, and having my work published to an online newspaper has been crucial to building my portfolio. When I am taking photos, I always aim to capture the small moments filled with big emotion that speak beyond just the photo, for this board I chose photos that I felt emulated that.
Being a part of Sacred Heart’s SCMA has been an incredible experience so far and I am looking forward to finishing up my undergraduate degree here. It is an honor to work and learn amongst so many talented students and incredible media professionals.
