Summary
From a young age, I have been deeply passionate about film and post-production. Determined to develop my skills, I built my own PC to teach myself Adobe Premiere Pro, laying the foundation for my journey into editing. Since then, I have continuously expanded my expertise by attending film school, where I have gained proficiency in a variety of industry-standard software, including DaVinci Resolve and Avid to name a few, as well as advanced editing techniques, colour grading, sound design, and visual effects.
Beyond technical skills, I thrive in both high-pressure and collaborative environments. This was demonstrated when I successfully secured filming permissions for my crew during a documentary shoot—navigating challenging negotiations with professionalism and composure. My ability to remain calm under pressure ensures that I can adapt to fast-paced post-production settings, meeting tight deadlines while maintaining high creative standards.
Additionally, my background in hospitality has honed my organizational skills, attention to detail, and client-focused approach. I am adept at multitasking, problem-solving, and ensuring that both clients and collaborators receive the best possible experience. I am eager to continue growing as an editor and expand my knowledge in all aspects of post-production, contributing my skills and enthusiasm to innovative projects.
