Jessica Kobeissi’s Bio:

Jessica Kobeissi – I’m a Lebanese-American photographer from Detroit, Michigan. At the age of 12 I began teaching myself code and design, and at age 15 I started my first graphics resource website.
I have a bachelor’s degree in graphic design. I started photography 5 years ago, and I haven’t really stopped taking photos since. After college, I started a Youtube Channel to help photographers with photoshop and photo editing.
