What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on role producing high-performing direct-response and social video content at a creative, growth-focused team where I can scale output and leverage AI workflows.

I am a performance-focused video editor and social media creator with a filmmaking background and a storytelling-first philosophy. I specialize in marketing content, producing social ads, video sales letters, and direct-response creative for e-commerce brands.

At BAD Marketing I created 20–30 performance-optimized ad creatives weekly across 30+ DTC and BTC brands, achieving a 2.5 ROAS on over 75% of videos and boosting workflow productivity with AI-assisted tools.

As a freelance editor, director, and producer I handled end-to-end multi-platform projects for clients including Good Mythical Morning, CryptTV, Marriott, and others, contributing to well over 50 million views and producing short films and podcasts recognized by major outlets.

I bring expertise in platform-specific optimization for TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube Shorts, precise color grading and audio mixing for broadcast standards, and a toolkit that includes Adobe Creative Suite, DaVinci Resolve, CapCut, and generative AI tools.
