Hi, I'm G! I'm a video editor and content creator with 10+ years of hands-on experience, and that's exactly what makes my creative strategy different. Most strategists tell you what to make. I can tell you what to make, why it will land, and exactly how to produce it. No guesswork, no disconnect between the plan and the execution. I've been in the edit bay long enough to know that what separates a good video from a great one is always the story. There's always a narrative in there. My job is to find it and bring it out in a way that actually captures attention and leaves a lasting impression. I've grown my own platforms to 41,000+ followers across social media, so I know what it takes to build an audience from the content side, not just the production side. I've also worked with YouTubers, TikTokers, and brands like Spotify, Target, and Pfizer. What clients tell me most is that I just get it, fast. Less back-and-forth, more momentum. What I bring to a project: content strategy rooted in real production knowledge, creative direction, story development, and end-to-end execution when you need it. I help creators and brands grow their social presence through content that actually connects, not content that just fills a calendar. I work in Premiere Pro, After Effects, Canva, and CapCut. Let's talk about what you're building!
