Mackenzie is a student at Ferris State pursuing her Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing with a concentration in Digital Marketing. She is a national member of the American Marketing Association and has competed in national competitions. For a few months, she lived and worked in Aalborg, Denmark for a marketing and photography internship with a startup company in 2021.
Born and raised in Northern Michigan, Mackenzie spent most of her time outdoors growing up. Spending so much time outdoors intrigued her interest in photography, and after meeting her first mentor at age 9, she fell in love with the craft. Now, she has traveled to many places following her passion for photography and is working on her small photography business. Mackenzie played multiple sports throughout her life, which allowed her to gain a friendly sense of competition along with strong teamwork skills.
You will always find Mackenzie with a camera in hand, traveling, or planning her next trip. After every adventure, she is always making her family sit down in the living room while she presents the trip highlights as a story time, with the photos to back it up on the TV screen.
