A Bethel, Connecticut native, Chelsea brings an open mind to the Merchandizing team as a Photo Specialist, hoping to learn new skills and collaborate with team members, all while learning new aspects of the industry. Her biggest career goal is to become a well-known photographer, and she would love to make her way into National Geographic. She has always wanted to be in the arts, even dreaming of being an artist as a child. She attended the New York Institute of Photography, studying nature, landscape, and travel photography. She is passionate about the conservation of sharks, which she believes are majestic creatures who are being dwindled down. She admires her older brother the most, who serves in the U.S. Army.
When she isn’t composing photos for work, she can be found listening to music, from metal and EDM to punk and rock, alt, and “screamo,” cracking up with dad jokes, watching her favorite movie, Grease, binge watching shows, going to the beach, and cuddling with her pets. She loves traveling to Italy for the culture and stunning sights that are both unique and authentic. Compassionate, open-minded, and unique, she believes in moving forward and developing personally from negative experiences in life, turning them into positives.
