With over seven years of freelance video editing experience, I've partnered with clients across a range of industries to create compelling visual content that informs, engages, and strengthens brand identity. Most recently, I've collaborated with a long-term client in the medical technology space, producing content for an ECG startup focused on communicating its mission, products, and brand presence. A significant portion of my work involves educational and informational videos that rely on detailed motion design and custom animation with After Effects, and combining that with clear visual storytelling. I specialize in creating dynamic short-form content for platforms such as YouTube and Instagram, with a focus on maintaining audience engagement through strong pacing, polished editing, and platform-specific optimization. I prioritize clear communication, streamlined project management, and fast turnaround times, allowing revisions and updates to be completed quickly while minimizing unnecessary back-and-forth. My goal is always to understand each client's vision from the outset and translate it into content that meets their objectives. I bring a versatile technical skill set that includes motion graphics, logo animation, visual effects, and brand-focused design work. Whether developing educational content, promotional campaigns, or social media assets, I strive to deliver polished, professional results that help brands communicate with clarity and impact.

During my ten years of teaching, I served in many classroom teacher roles, ranging from first grade to sixth grade math. I also took on several administration roles, including Math Curriculum Coordinator, 6th Grade/MTSS Lead, and Field Trip Coordinator. My experience as a teacher has made me extremely qualified to edit a variety of work with a careful focus on details and clarity, allowed me to hone both my written and verbal communication skills, and made me quite adept at working with a variety of people and meeting everyone's needs to the best of my ability. After leaving teaching, I have been focused on a variety of projects and endeavors. While raising two boys, I have also had many opportunities to develop my skills as a writer, editor, and personal assistant. I have written numerous professional and personal pieces, including: • SEO content for a variety of publishers • Lesson plans, curriculum units, and test preparation materials • Blog posts for teachers and other professionals • Resumes and cover letters • Market research, opinions, and analysis • Website construction • AI chatbot response analysis Additionally, I have worked as an editor for books, articles, and essays, even following through with publishing, distribution, and marketing. I have also been a personal assistant for several clients, working on projects ranging from tax documents to school forms to insurance matters and everything in between. I’m highly proficient in Google, Microsoft, and Apple applications and can easily adapt to whatever tools my clients prefer. If you’re looking to make your life more manageable, your words stronger, or have more time in your life, I would love to be of assistance. I am reliable, deadline-driven, and easy to work with. Please let me know how I can help you!
