For the past 14 years, I have been working professionally in Northern California as a motion designer for tech/gaming studios and in Southern California as a videographer and editor. Worked on brands such as Airbnb, Uber, Final Fantasy, Marvel, Harry Potter, creating ads, trailers and social content. In 2024, I left my job and moved to Austin, TX, to be closer to family. In the meantime, I spent time backpacking across Europe and Asia, challenging myself with new experiences. Seeking a fresh perspective, I’m excited to bring my expertise to Austin, where I’m eager to contribute to innovative teams and embrace a new chapter of growth and opportunity. I pride myself on my ability to develop new skill sets quickly and adapt to my surroundings.
