Roy made these comments during a TEDx talk she delivered in October 2018 in Springfield, Massachusetts. The talk was titled “Accidental Photographs: Taking Ownership of Chance.” The event was sponsored by the insurance company MassMutual, with whom Roy interned last summer. Roy was invited to speak at the event after winning the MassMutual intern speech competition.
Last summer, she also received a McKee Photography Grant allowing her to pursue an independent project. This coming semester, Roy will take Professor of Art Mike Kolster’s documentary photo class.
