What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a dynamic role that fosters creativity and collaboration, where I can contribute to impactful projects and grow my skills in video production and graphic design.

I'm Robert Kariuki, a vibrant and creative young professional dedicated to content creation. With over 7 years of experience in video editing, motion graphics, and graphic design, I have successfully produced quality video projects that elevate client standards and enhance their social media presence. My relentless enthusiasm for crafting captivating visual stories shines through in every carefully crafted frame.

Currently, I work as a Youtube Shorts Editor at Goalcast, where I handle general video editing tasks, including overlaying video, voiceover, and music. My previous roles include working as a remote video editor for Valnet Inc. and as a Public Communication Officer intern at the Ministry of ICT in Kenya. My diverse experiences have equipped me with a unique skill set that combines technical proficiency with a strong understanding of corporate communication and public relations.
