I am looking to continue to grow in my career in the ever expansive and changing video industry, with a keen interest in podcast entertainment as it is my primary source of media consumption, and a world I have been looking into myself for some time. Starting out as a Junior Video Editor in 2015, I quickly worked my way up to Lead and Manager between 2020 to now, with a proven track record in overseeing and contributing to every aspect of the production process. I am adept in end-to-end audio-visual content creation, with expertise in relevant software and equipment. I have also done extensive research and development of multiple podcast pilots and series. I have a passion for anything and everything audio-video, with a solid foundation of skills and knowledge, and where I lack experience with specific tools or formats, I am a fast adaptable problem-solver who can figure out and fix things as needed.
