Video editor specializing in long-form, retention-driven storytelling—either from solo end-to-end documentary production or as an editor for large-audience international YouTube channels. I’m fluent across DaVinci Resolve and Premiere Pro, with hands-on motion graphics, color grading, and audio post work. I’m comfortable owning the full project workflow: shaping pacing and chapters from raw footage and script to a polished final cut. I’ve also edited gaming and social content for major channels, focusing on hooks, re-engagement beats, and audience retention.
