$10K+ total earnings

I am a feature film editor and VFX supervisor who has led post-production on 6+ professionally funded European feature films, serving as both main editor and VFX lead. My work spans the full post-production pipeline — from structural edit refinement and performance shaping to complex compositing, matchmoving, cleanup, and final delivery-ready finishing. I combine narrative sensitivity with technical precision, ensuring that performances, pacing, and emotional clarity remain intact while invisible visual effects integrate seamlessly into the cinematic language of the film. Alongside long-form narrative projects, I collaborate on trailers, commercial campaigns, and high-end VFX-driven content where storytelling strength and polished execution are critical. My focus is always on delivering cohesive, production-ready results that elevate the overall project.
