I am a Video Editor and current Film Student at ENERC, specializing in the intersection of cinematic language and digital engagement. My background is a hybrid of formal film training and real-world experience in high-retention content creation. I have spent the last year as a Lead Editor for a music-focused YouTube channel, where I developed visual strategies to maximize audience retention through rhythmic editing and sound design. My technical expertise includes: Avid Media Composer: Primarily used for narrative structures, suspense-driven pacing, and academic film projects. Adobe Premiere Pro: My go-to for music videos, dynamic social media content, and fast-paced digital storytelling. Beyond the technical, I am deeply influenced by film history and visual arts, which allows me to bring a unique aesthetic perspective to every project—whether it's a suspense short film or a commercial music video. I am a native Spanish speaker and proficient in English, ready to collaborate on international projects that require both technical precision and creative soul.
