I’m a video editor and content strategist focused on retention-driven storytelling.
What I'm looking for
I’m a dynamic video editor and content strategist, specialized in high-retention storytelling for digital platforms. I build engaging posts for YouTube, Instagram Reels, and professional marketing campaigns, with an emphasis on keeping audiences watching and returning.
I’m strongest in full-cycle post-production, handling everything from assembly and hook-based pacing to sound mixing and color correction. I also create motion graphics and subtitling, and I’ve worked with green screen workflows to expand creative possibilities.
To speed up output without sacrificing quality, I integrate AI into my editing workflow—using AI voice synthesis, automated transcription, generative visuals, and AI frame interpolation. I’m also deliberate about content optimization, including high-CTR thumbnail design, viral trend analysis, and fast, dynamic production styles designed for organic growth.
In my freelance work, I’ve produced 100+ short-form videos for diverse international clients, partnering on content calendars and niche-specific visual styles. I’ve also developed a signature YouTube editing style that grew significantly in its first year, and I’ve delivered AI-enhanced production improvements—reducing production time by 40% while maintaining a cinematic standard.
