What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster creativity, collaboration, and growth in visual storytelling.

I am a seasoned Cinematographer and Editor with over ten years of expertise in visual storytelling, filming, and post-production. My career has been dedicated to crafting compelling visuals and seamless narratives while managing all aspects of video production. I thrive in high-energy environments and excel in collaborating with teams to deliver exceptional projects across various genres, including commercials, short films, documentaries, and music videos.

Throughout my career, I have been recognized for my ability to bring creative visions to life with precision and a strong attention to detail. My experience includes working on notable projects such as the 'One World Day Campaign' and 'Community Kitchen Documentary,' where I collaborated closely with directors and producers to develop visually engaging concepts. I am proficient in industry-standard tools, including ARRI, Sony, and Canon cameras, as well as editing software like Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve, ensuring high-quality outputs that exceed client expectations.
