Matthew Serra

Age: 16 Community Health Academy of The HeightsI have struggled with controlling my anger, which has caused me to get in trouble in and out of school. I began to change once I met my friend group at school. They have made such an impact on me. I tend to show my work to the people I adore and care for the most. My inspiration is an Expanding the Walls alumnus: Joel Angel—he is the person who got me into photography. His photographs catch my eye because they’re snapshots but most have a story behind them. A lot of them are edited well, too. He is one of my biggest inspirations and I hope to one day reach his level of work.
