Who I Am
My name is Bernadette Conway, and I am a visual storyteller from Long Island, New York with 10 years of experience. Picking up a GoPro Hero 4 silver in 2015 led me to a passion that quickly fueled a dream turned reality. I’m fortunate enough to call that dream my current career, and below is just a glimpse of how that little GoPro has impacted every year since.
