About Me

I have always had a passion for the creative and it sparked an interest in video editing. I used my free time to learn the basics through YouTube videos and a lot of practice. After learning this skill, I was able to land freelance editing jobs, helping content creators brainstorm ideas, record, and edit their videos.

The software I use to edit videos are After Effects, Premier Pro, and iMovie. For photo editing I use Photoshop and Lightroom. Although my skills are basic, I am motivated and determined to improve my skills. I am constantly learning and growing as a video editor.

I also have some experience in sound editing. I was a part of a podcast which I hosted, edited, and uploaded the audio onto Libsyn. This allowed the podcast to be uploaded to the main apps like Spotify and Apple Podcasts. The softwares I use for audio editing are iMovie and Garageband.
