About

I’m a freelance motion designer and video editor who loves turning complex ideas into clear, accessible visuals. I’ve worked across short-form and long-form video, building explainer-style animations, refining layout and motion for consistency, and supporting projects with subtitle delivery, color correction, and audio editing.

I also lead teams when needed—setting up After Effects templates and guidelines, creating MOGRTs, defining workflow and archiving systems, and supporting studio-style workflows like live visual mixing and recording. Alongside editing and motion graphics, I enjoy strong brand alignment, 4K projection-ready delivery, and thoughtful accessibility across every visual detail I make.
