What I'm looking for

I’m looking to edit engaging social media and YouTube videos that keep viewers hooked. I want a role where I can apply smooth transitions, motion graphics, and strong pacing—delivering polished results on time with room to grow.

I’m a creative, detail-oriented video editor with a strong background in editing engaging content for social media, YouTube, and brand promotions. I bring a passion for storytelling, smooth transitions, and visual effects that capture attention and retain viewers.

Since 2023, I’ve freelanced editing short-form and long-form videos—handling subtitles, motion graphics, color, and sound syncing to deliver high-quality results on time. I also completed self-initiated online internship projects in 2022–2023, assisting small creators while building advanced techniques like color grading and dynamic captions.
