About

With a background in cutting narrative and documentary features, trailers, digital series, branded content, and fast-turnaround verticals for streamers and platforms like HBO Max, Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu—and a deep understanding of what drives engagement on Socials—I’m confident I can help bring your storytelling to new heights.

I bring over 10 years of experience editing content with bold pacing, emotional hooks, and visual polish that holds attention. I’ve cut everything from social lifestyle formats to doc-style true crime, with a proven ability to adapt tone and rhythm to audience expectations—and have a unique understanding in differences when cutting for longer narrative scripted content or for short form featured on YouTube, where energy, structure, and timing are everything.

I’m fluent in Avid, the Adobe Creative Suite, and DaVinci Resolve, and am currently working with newer AI technologies such as Runway AI and Veo-3 AI. I thrive in fast-paced, collaborative environments where creative leadership and rapid iteration are essential. Beyond technical execution, I’m also a strong story and structure thinker—frequently brought into projects early to help shape voice, rhythm, and viewer payoff. I’ve led projects through complex deadlines, and I know how to keep those around me motivated and aligned through crunch time.
