Freelance video editor specialising in high-retention, story-driven content for business, marketing, and YouTube creators. I build edits around viewer psychology—scroll-stopping hooks, pacing that holds attention beyond the 3-minute mark, and narrative structure that drives action. I’ve worked in a fast-turnaround environment for a 7-figure performance marketing agency, producing long-form YouTube content with 500K+ combined views. I manage end-to-end post-production (edit, captions, sound, motion graphics, colour) and tailor platform-native pacing for YouTube, TikTok, Instagram Reels, and Shorts.
