Hi, I’m Chiara, a versatile video editor with over three years of professional editing experience across educational long-form content, podcasts, promotional videos, and social-first storytelling. I thrive on creating engaging hooks, clear pacing, and retention-focused storytelling, and I work well independently or remotely, integrating footage from DSLR, drone, and mobile sources while preserving brand consistency. My background includes developing educational videos for a national STEAM-focused non-profit and coordinating marketing visuals from concept through final production. I’m comfortable collaborating with stakeholders, managing multi-source libraries, and delivering high-quality work on fast turnarounds.
