I'm so happy you found me!

I went from crying when my mom signed me up for horseback riding lessons to becoming a full-on horse girl for over a decade. My love for horses started immediately, and I’ve been so lucky to have had many heart horses over the years. When it came time to name my business, I wanted something with deep meaning that reflected both my journey and my work. That’s why I named it after a special heart horse, Future Trend—the one who taught me countless lessons and truly transformed me as a rider. I’m forever grateful to have crossed paths with such an incredible boy.  
Thanks to my dad, photography has always been part of my story, thanks to my dad. From the moment he bought his first camera and started taking pictures of me riding at the barn, I thought does he even know what he's doing? But as soon as I picked it up, I realized I could turn this into something big. And he never got that camera back but shh.. this can be our secret. ONLY KIDDING!! He knows I still have the camera. I am so incredibly grateful for both my parents who support and guide me along this journey.  


I officially launched my photography business in November 2023, but it wasn’t until my second year at Sacred Heart University, during an Intro to Digital Marketing class, that I realized I wanted to take things further. That’s when Future Heights Media was born; built on the idea of helping equestrian brands, businesses, and riders reach their full potential.  


Today, I’m a student-athlete at Sacred Heart University, majoring in Sports Media and Communications with minors in Advertising, PR, and Digital Marketing. I’m learning new things every day, but I didn’t want to wait for a piece of paper to tell me I could do this. I know I can do this now, and I’m so excited to bring my skills and passion to help you reach new heights.
