About
I’m an award-winning Editor, who not only has expert post-production but also injects passion, creativity, and an unyielding dedication to storytelling into every project.
As a top agency editor, I’ve specialized in all genres of corporate videos, such as commercials, sizzle reels, digital advertising, long form, corporate B2B and social media content working with top entertainment and consumer brands.
I’m extremely creative and very fast at translating scripts from roughs into compelling spots. I’m also extremely advanced with all aspects of post and finishing with all NLE’s including Premiere, Final Cut and AVID. I’m also an After Effects artist/compositor creating motion graphics, green screen comps, rotoscope, animation, audio mixing and advanced color correction with DaVinci Resolve. I’ve also mastered using AI to clean up bad video and audio, which has been a total game changer.
I’m also a great collaborator, working closely with my creative partners, stakeholders and audience engagement to produce the very best content possible. Please take a moment to review all of my recommendations on Linkedin and see for yourself!
I’ve been working remote for almost 5 years now and maintain a top level system with mirrored and raid 5 storage that always ensures backups and no data loss. I’m am fully fluent in all productivity software, inclusing Jira, Asana, Airtable, Slack, Zoom and Frame.io. I’m extremely professional, a self-starter, a problem solver and I always deliver work on time… and on target!
