Hi! My name's Jesse. I'm a 23-year-old student at Fordham University in New York City (I started college late). I'm a freelance photographer and video editor interested in anything related to the field. During the summer of 2018, I traveled to 18 different cities across Europe and it absolutely changed my life. Looking to hopefully find some other travelers to connect with on here before my next trip around the world!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I got my pilots license before I got my drivers license!

Teach, Learn, Share

Living in New York City as a photographer and part-time traveler has taught me so many important life lessons. I can teach the ins and outs of basic photography and videography, as well as share some of the most insightful things about the best city in the U.S.

Also always looking to further my Italian language studies!
