I’m a video editor and filmmaker with a Bachelor of Visual Communication Design from the University of Newcastle, specialising in media production and graphic design. Over the past several years, I’ve worked across freelance projects, film productions, and digital creative roles, including as a Digital Creative Assistant at the University of Newcastle and Production Assistant with THIRTY3SOUTH Films. My experience spans Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, and Final Cut Pro, as well as colour grading with DaVinci Resolve. I’ve produced and edited video content for a variety of platforms, from short-form social media to full productions, combining technical precision with creative storytelling. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt to different workflows and collaborate effectively while still thriving independently. I’m detail-oriented, organised, and genuinely passionate about delivering polished, engaging video content. Right now, I’m focused on building my editing portfolio and bringing value to projects that need a creative, reliable editor who can take raw footage and shape it into something compelling.
