Ambitious serial entrepreneur, writer, author & photographer pursuing a creative, boundless career path...

I live by my personal mantra:

"Choose your own path. Own your chosen path."

At 15 I hacked high school creating a unique curriculum through an accredited alternative learning program, a co-op, college courses and various extracurricular activities including public speaking and snowboarding clubs, dance and music lessons, achieving the well-rounded education I envisioned.

And that was just the beginning...

My life hacking, entrepreneurial spirit was lit leading me to...

• write a young adult novel The Colors of Rayne (Facebook) by age 18, published by 20

• start my own photography business Barefoot Prints Photography (Facebook)

• beat financial hindrances and "studied abroad" by pursuing a nanny position in Rome, traveling on my time off and volunteering at an international youth center just outside the Vatican Centro San Lorenzo

• intern at Boston Magazine, The Daily Hampshire Gazette

• write for UMass Amherst's Massachusetts Daily Collegian newspaper and Amherst Wire e-magazine

• co-found the Anna Shoe Agency, a marketing agency for small and startup businesses
