What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can create narrative-driven video and motion graphics, collaborate with creative teams, and grow in post-production leadership.

I am a professional video editor and motion graphics specialist with over 10 years of experience creating YouTube content, corporate videos, social media shorts, and real estate advertising.

I have strong skills in video editing, compositing, visual effects, and motion graphics, and I regularly use Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Adobe Audition, and Autodesk Maya to deliver high-quality results.

My work includes producing a short film that was accepted into 13 international film festivals, earning 2 awards, 2 VFX nominations, and 2 honorable mentions, demonstrating my commitment to craft and storytelling.

I also bring experience as an ESL instructor, which strengthens client communication, project coordination, and the ability to explain creative decisions clearly to diverse stakeholders.
