My name is Alyssa and I am a video editor, potter and photographer. I earned my BFA in Motion Pictures & Television from the Academy of Art University in San Francisco in 2022. Due to the uncertain nature of the entertainment industry the last few years, I have learned to become adaptable, acquire new skills and become a jack of all trades. Since I graduated from college I have been working as a freelance video editor and turning my love of ceramics and photography into a small business. I currently work as the Marketing Manager at ClayPeople, a pottery supply store in the Bay Area. In this role I have developed and designed our brand new website, managed online inventory, performed social media and email marketing tasks, and done graphic design. When I am not working ClayPeople, I am video editing and teaching pottery classes at Mudworks Pottery Studio in El Cerrito, CA.
