About

Hi, I’m Gemma Leary, a creative and reliable short-form social media content creator based in Durham, UK. I turn ideas into engaging TikTok and social content using hands-on production skills—creating video concepts, scripting, designing graphics in Canva, and editing with CapCut, often with support from AI tools to speed up research and creative development.

I also bring an eye for quality and consistency, from voiceovers and text-on-screen styles to slideshows, stock footage, captions, and clear calls to action. With a background spanning professional work for 20+ years and a built TikTok audience, I focus on audience-focused entertainment, lifestyle, sport, television and product-led content—always adapting formats for each platform and deadline.
