About

I’m a film and video professional based in Prishtinë, Kosovo, with a strong background in directing, editing, and coordinating creative production. I’ve worked end-to-end on video and social content—planning shoots, managing production logistics, and delivering multi-platform edits (Reels/TikTok/YouTube/Facebook) with a consistent brand voice and storytelling focus.

Alongside film production, I also contribute to media content for community and awareness initiatives, including mental health and suicide prevention short-form campaigns. I enjoy bridging creativity and operations—building AI-assisted content workflows, developing film programs, coordinating partnerships, and writing/editing communication materials that support engagement and advocacy goals.
