I've worked professionally as an editor, VFX coordinator, and videographer. As a VFX Coordinator at Scanline VFX (owned by Netflix), I managed daily operations and tasks across multiple departments on high-budget films, including Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, Meg 2: The Trench, and Rebel Moon: Parts 1 and 2. Before this, I honed my skills as a film editor by assistant-editing a feature-length film, and I worked as a video editor for segments on the 6pm news for CBC/Radio-Canada in Vancouver, BC. I am an award-winning filmmaker and I have a passion for writing screenplays. With over six years of experience in film and project management, five years of leadership in the United States Marine Corps, and a year in Luxury Sales, I am a highly organized and detail-oriented professional driven by storytelling, team success, and top-tier customer service.
