What I'm looking for

Seeking a role in film production or event management

I am a reliable and personable professional with extensive experience in creating dynamic, fast-paced video content for social media platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. With a strong background in film production and content editing, I have successfully managed end-to-end video creation, from filming on both phones and cameras to editing using various apps and software. My focus has always been on delivering high-quality, short-form content with a quick turnaround, ensuring it aligns with brand aesthetics and engages audiences effectively.

I thrive in high-pressure, fast-paced environments and am comfortable working under tight deadlines while maintaining creativity and quality. My strong organisational, problem-solving, and observational skills have been honed through diverse roles, from content creation to customer service and team collaboration. As a team player with excellent interpersonal skills, I’m driven by a strong work ethic and always look for innovative ways to meet team goals and exceed expectations.
