BUT FIRST...

Learn more about me:


I am a twenty-year-old third-year student at the University of Guelph-Humber. I have always enjoyed the creative nature of all types of media and creative productions. I was enamoured by the Media and Communication Studies program because it allowed me to showcase my creativity. For the rest of my University career, I intend to further enhance my skills and knowledge in the Media and Communication field. In the future, I will explore a profession in the Media and Communications field to continue to express my creativity.

Photo Assignment

For this assignment, we were instructed to create a brand-centered photo gallery that follows a story. I chose to showcase the brand Fender with their model, the Stratocaster.

Video Assignment

For this assignment, we were tasked with creating a video for the same brand as the one used in the Photo Assignment. I continued with the Fender brand creating an addition to their “Player Series”.

Audio Assignment

For this assignment, we were tasked with creating a short-form video using the same footage as the previous assignment, with a heavier emphasis on audio production.

Data Visualization Chart

In 2023, a survey asked over 1,400 people whether they had bought a guitar that year. This graph shows the percentage of the ages (in years) of those who said 'YES'.

Land Acknowledgement

The University of Guelph-Humber and Humber College are located within the traditional and treaty lands of the Mississaugas of the Credit. Known as Adoobiigok, the “Place of the Black Alders” in the Mississauga language, the region is uniquely situated along Humber River Watershed, which historically provided an integral connection for Anishinaabe, Haudenosaunee, and Wendat peoples between the Ontario Lakeshore and the Lake Simcoe/Georgian Bay regions. Now home to people of numerous nations, Adoobiigok continues to provide a vital source of interconnection for all. We acknowledge and honour the land we are walking on, the moccasin tracks of our ancestors and the footprints of the future generations to come.
