I have been honing my craft as a video editor since 2019, when I first began studying Film and TV as an art form. Since then, I have continued to study video editing and film making, and have applied my gained skills to a plethora of different projects, varying in style and genre. I am passionate about post-production work, and always strive to produce high-quality content and expand my abilities and skills. Software I’ve used includes Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, After Effects, CapCut, and Adobe Photoshop. I value clear communication with colleagues, meet deadlines, and enjoy collaborating in teams to deliver the highest quality outcomes. I am currently volunteering as a freelance video editor for Fat Cactus Productions in Newcastle Upon Tyne, building a diverse portfolio across promotional content, showreels, comedy sketches, short films, and documentaries.
