What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters creativity and innovation, where I can leverage my expertise in AI video production to drive audience engagement and growth.

I am a visionary AI Video Producer with over 5 years of hands-on expertise in generative AI video creation and prompt engineering. My journey has been marked by a proven ability to architect high-impact video systems that significantly boost audience engagement. With 26+ years of leadership experience in revenue optimization and operational efficiency, I combine deep technical proficiency with a passion for merging narrative psychology and AI to craft viral video experiences.

Throughout my career, I have created over 200 AI-driven videos for platforms like YouTube and TikTok, developing structured prompt templates that ensure consistent character and style output across long-form narratives. My innovative approach has led to a 45% reduction in production time through automation of repetitive tasks, while my Google Ads certifications have enabled me to optimize video SEO and increase channel subscribers effectively. I am dedicated to pushing the boundaries of AI video production and continuously exploring new tools and methodologies to enhance audience engagement.
