About

I’m Ilja Leheta, a creative video editor and content creator with 2+ years of experience producing engaging long-form and short-form videos for platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram. I focus on storytelling, hook-based pacing, audience retention, and trend-aware editing so each video keeps viewers watching while matching the goals of the brand or creator.

I bring a full post-production workflow to every project—captions and subtitles, sound design and audio syncing, motion graphics, transitions and effects, and color grading. Whether I’m editing in-house or freelancing remotely, I’m comfortable working independently or collaborating with others to manage multiple projects, apply feedback efficiently, and deliver consistent, high-quality content.
