About

I am a Creative Video Editor and Digital Content Creator with over half a decade of experience. I create content for various media, including short-form and long-form videos, brand/corporate videos, and podcast production. My goal is to help brands grow their digital presence through creative storytelling and consistent quality.

I’ve worked with startups like Bumpa, as well as personal brands, delivering results like:
• 3M+ combined video views.
• 350% Instagram growth (3,500 to 16,000+ followers).
• High-performing podcast and YouTube content.

My journey began with curiosity; I wanted to understand how movies were made, and ended up falling in love with the creative process. That same curiosity fuels my work today. Whether it's experimenting with new editing styles, staying up-to-date with social trends, or managing end-to-end content pipelines, I'm always growing and pushing myself forward.
