During my time at FIT, one of my major focuses was the relationships I formed with my classmates and faculty. These relationships were essential when I was beginning my career as a freelance photographer. They resulted in many of my very first jobs that snowballed into the life I live today. In 2023, I became adjunct faculty at the college. It has been incredibly rewarding to encourage the growth of a new generation of image makers. — Jordan Tiberio, Photography BFA '15, created the flower photography elements used on the cover of Ariana Grande's new album "Petal."
