I’m a film editor and post-production professional with experience delivering fast, high-impact short-form edits and high-pressure deadlines across music and entertainment projects. I’m confident working with both Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects, and I’m comfortable balancing speed with creativity to produce content that looks polished and performs on platform. I’ve worked in roles ranging from editing support and post-production runner work to freelance editing for artists and teams. I’m detail-focused, enjoy building timelines and syncing multi-camera content, and bring a collaborative approach when working with directors, producers, and creative teams.
