Picture this: the electrifying energy of a NHL game, the roar of the crowd, and me, a young assistant editor, meticulously piecing together the highlights. That was my first (professional) taste of the storytelling magic video editing holds. Fast forward, and I'm creating viral gems for Ranker History, Ranker Horror, Ranker Nerd, and Watchworthy; while collaborating with industry giants like Paramount+, Disney+, CBS, and White Claw.
But it's not just the big names that fuel my passion. It's the challenge of transforming complex ideas into narratives that grip viewers in seconds — or — the challenge of maintaining a modern viewer’s dwindling attention span via long-form, or narrative content. Whether crafting scroll-stopping content for Aputure or producing engaging videos for various Warner Bros IPs; I thrive on weaving brand identities into captivating stories.
Sure, I'm a whiz with tools like Premiere Pro and After Effects, but the real magic lies in collaboration. Brainstorming with creative teams, bouncing ideas off clients, and seeing a shared vision come to life through video – that's what gets me buzzing. Now, after conquering hockey rinks, Hollywood studios, and the wild west coast (as a proud Michigan transplant!), I'm on the hunt for my next full-time adventure. If you're looking for a video editor who brings passion, expertise, and a collaborative spirit to the table, let's chat! Huge shoutout to the incredible teams I've learned and grown with along the way! Keep fighting the good fight.
