I have so much to say about this picture.

My time at The Savannah College of Art and Design has made an indescribable impression on my life and who I am. As I left high school I was a bit unsure of where I should be or what I should be doing. I had more questions than answers.

The people of my time at SCAD are the true story. My fellow students inspired me to be/do better while making it fun, we were there together weathering the storm of deadlines and exams.

My professors gave me a drive- they have set the example (of who I am now aiming to be.)They refused to accept anything less than my best. They pushed me. Their commitment to academia has sometimes been an unpopular decision in the context of an art school, but as they have set themselves apart by choosing a pedagogy of rigor that is dedicated to research and professionalism, the fruits of their labors can be seen throughout conferences and the field as SCAD alumni have begun to repeatedly excel.

As I transition to my internship with the HABS/HAER/HALS program and move to Washington D.C. I strive to make good on a promise:

that I will reflect well the whole, as well as my self.
