Rockstar video editor with a background in communications and indie film. Based on recent feedback that I have received from former employers and clients, I can say that I am a gifted editor with an excellent sense of pacing, music selection, and the ability to tell a visually slick and emotionally potent story or splashy reel or sizzle. My favorite thing to do is to weave a raw interview together with music and other video into an inspiring and emotionally potent video deliverable. Video editing is a craft, storytelling is a passion. With a background in corporate communications and journalism, I am a strong written and verbal communicator, confidently creating strong and clarified connections with the team. Up-to-date with industry standards, the particulars of social media such as aspect ratios, lengths, and platforms, and quick turnaround times. Excellent at taking a seed of an idea all the way through to a polished finished product. Diplomatic, hard-working, and composed. **Employment and project experience** **Video Editor** Social Media Videos: Loyola Marymount University April 2023 - Sept 2023 **Video Editor** Internal Comms & Social Media Videos: United Talent Agency April 2021- Feb 2023 **Video Editor** Advert Video: Lurssen Mastering March 2022 **Video Editor** Advert Video: MoonPod web marketing videos April 2021 **Video Editor** "Let me In": Indie Short film June 2020 **Video Editor** Social media videos : Disney + February 2020 **Video Editor** Promo Videos and Adverts: LA Philharmonic January 2020 **Video Editor** "Uncovered** Short Film Edit June 2019 **Video Editor** Room 17: Feature Length Film July 2020
