To pick just one dream job is quite difficult when there are so many awesome jobs out there to make your own and the possibilities are endless. I went to school for Television Production because I love everything about the field from the writing and pre-production to directing, filming, and being both behind and in front of the camera. And my favorite part came in post-production in the editing room where the entire script and all the production work really comes alive.
The biggest thrill for me came from Producing a live county-wide news program in college that went on to win a National Communicator Award in 2006. I still love everything about the field but decided to walk away from it to have a family. That line of work interfered with the kind of mother I wanted to be to my daughter so I moved on.
After my daughter was born my love of photography blossomed. It became my new creative outlet and from then on my face was hidden behind my lens. I learned a great deal about film and video cameras in college that I can translate the basics over to still photography but I still have a great deal to learn. To make a career out of it would be amazing but my abilities are not there yet. And as much as I love a good photograph to speak for itself, I can't help but want to add words. To be a travel photojournalist for amazing publication like National Geographic Traveler would be a dream. I ache to see the world and to share my experiences and to do it for such an iconic company as National Geographic is my ultimate dream. A girl can dream, can't she?
