What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply my news video editing, production, content curation, and digital distribution experience to high-impact programming and fast-paced editorial workflows.

I've edited clips and full episodes for CBS News programs including 60 Minutes, Face the Nation, and CBS Mornings, delivering time-sensitive coverage for major events such as the State of the Union Address, the 2024 Vice Presidential Debate, and Presidential Inauguration.

Previously, I edited programming for Good Morning America, World News Tonight, The View, and Nightline at ABC Television Group, created motion graphics for ABC News Live, and managed 2,500 film and television titles across YouTube and Roku at FilmRise. I bring hands-on editing, content curation, SEO coordination, and cross-functional production experience to news and streaming video workflows.
