I created The Worthy Girl to be a place where girls and young women are reminded of their strength, beauty, and resilience and that it’s ok to feel like you don’t have it all together.

I have been working with high school girls for over 15 years as a photographer, getting to know them, their struggles, and their insecurities. I began seeing myself in them and started a journey to figure out why I was always so hard on myself, why I never thought I was good enough, and what I could do to feel more confident and love myself fully.

I realized that what I was learning was exactly what young women need to know about themselves- that they are strong, capable, and worthy, despite what they may think -and THE WORTHY GIRL was born!
