About Me

My name is Daniel Abebaw. I'm an 18-year-old college student, award-winning photographer, and performing musician who believes that creative skills aren't talents you're born with, they're languages you learn. I didn't start out knowing how to read music or compose a shot. I learned by doing, by failing, and by finding mentors who met me where I was. That's exactly the kind of tutor I want to be for you. Whether you're picking up a camera for the first time, learning to hear music differently, or trying to tell a story through digital media, I'll meet you where you are with hands-on guidance from someone who genuinely loves these crafts. My photography received state and national recognition while I was in high school, and so can you. I perform trombone in my college's top jazz ensemble and recently recorded a professional album at Pachyderm Studios with a Grammy-nominated jazz violinist (I also play alto sax, drums, guitar, trumpet, and piano). I've been building creative skills in the real world, and I want to help you do the same.
