Athena has always had a passion for photography, especially the photographs that make you want to know about the story behind the image. She likes to think that in another life she would have been a photojournalist of some kind. But in this one, she is merely pursuing her own personal projects that will hopefully capture some interesting individuals or stories. If not, then at least she will get to spend time enjoying herself while refining her craft.

She lives in Maryland with her wife, two dogs and a bird that runs the house.
