Available to hire
I’m a documentary filmmaker and video editor based in Edinburgh, with an MA in Film Directing. I specialize in non-fiction storytelling and have independently produced and directed multiple short documentaries from concept to final cut. A disciplined preditor (producer-editor), I combine technical proficiency in the Adobe Creative Suite and camera operation with the logistical reliability gained from international administrative roles.
Bilingual in Mandarin and English, I am adept at crafting engaging narratives under real-world constraints and collaborating with audio specialists to enhance sound design, color grading, and overall narrative immersion.
