About Me
Hello, my name is Jake Rice. I am a proud graduate of Bearden High School, where I dedicated myself to both academic pursuits and a wide range of extracurricular activities. Throughout my four years at Bearden, I was a committed member of the school's marching band, participating in numerous performances and competitions that helped develop my discipline, teamwork skills, and passion for music. In addition, I was involved in the symphonic band for three years and the indoor percussion ensemble for three years, further broadening my musical experience and leadership abilities. I also served as a member of the Rotary Club for two years, engaging in community service projects and strengthening my commitment to giving back to others.
Beyond my academic and extracurricular commitments, I have always had a strong love for adventure and exploration. Whether hiking in the outdoors or wandering through the city streets, I enjoy discovering new places and experiences. Photography is another passion of mine that naturally complements this spirit of adventure. I rarely go anywhere without my camera, and I take pride in capturing the moments and scenes that inspire me. Every photograph featured in this portfolio was personally taken and carefully selected by me, reflecting my dedication to storytelling through visual art.
