Creative video editor with expertise in narrative development.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am a passionate video editor with over a decade of experience in visual storytelling and artistic direction. My journey began in fine arts, where I honed my skills in abstract figurative painting, which has greatly influenced my approach to video editing. I have worked on high-profile commercial projects for brands like Hugo Boss and Balmain, collaborating with renowned directors to bring compelling narratives to life.
In my most recent role as a Research Assistant at New York University, I conducted in-depth investigative research into political dark money networks. This experience has sharpened my analytical skills, allowing me to compile comprehensive research briefs and support narrative development effectively. I thrive in creative environments where I can leverage my problem-solving abilities and artistic vision to produce impactful visual content.
