Editing for social media is what I do best.
I cut both horizontal and vertical. I also make generative video.

An editor who understands the brief
I studied graphic design from 1999 to 2001. Since then, alongside video, I've worked in communications, marketing, and creative direction. So when you send me a brief, I understand what the video has to do and who it's for before I make the first cut.
I'm comfortable in After Effects, where I spent three years cutting ads for a small local media outlet, and I do a bit of motion design. AI is part of my workflow: I use it for storyboarding and VFX, and to save time in post-production.
I'm a content creator too
I post my own videos on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, and YouTube, so I see what happens after they go live: which hook holds people through the first few seconds, when they drop off, and what each platform's algorithm rewards. I cut your videos using what mine have taught me.
