Throughout high school Swopes designed but focused most on working outside of designing because there wasn’t much design work anymore with MySpace slowing down and she needed real money for college. She chose to study at Columbia College Chicago for a major in graphic design and a minor in media management. This was the best choice considering it was something she had always loved doing.

Eventually, Swopes began creating artwork with my iPhone and made a name for herself on the app Instagram. At some point, Instagram blew up with users and she gained thousands of followers within months. In time, She created a brand for herself and began working as an influencer on many campaigns with big brands like Nike, Sony, Coach, Discovery Channel and Enjoy Illinois. Today, She continues to travel the world doing Instagram campaigns as a photographer and influencer through 247 Laundry Service.
