Hello there! Looking for a Video Editor? Are you looking for something corporate & professional? Or maybe something silly, lighthearted, or fun? I've edited in multiple styles for over 10 years. I’m passionate and willing to learn more about my craft too! Using that mix, we can work together to create videos for you that not only look great, but are also entertaining along the way. I use Adobe Premiere software to create YouTube videos, interviews, shorts, trailers/teasers, or even educational videos for an online course. I am diligent, have an excellent work ethic, experienced, and turn videos around fast. Feel free to look at a few work samples, my demo reel, and Linked In page to review my qualifications listed below.

I’m a professional Video Podcast Editor, Audio Editor, and Podcast Producer with more than 10 years of experience turning raw recordings into polished, publish-ready content. I help podcasters, founders, businesses, and agencies produce professional long-form episodes, clean podcast audio, and engaging short-form content for YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, LinkedIn, Instagram, and TikTok. Whether your podcast is recorded remotely, in person, with one camera, multiple cameras, or audio only, I can manage the complete post-production process. My background in television news and podcast production has given me a strong understanding of storytelling, pacing, audience engagement, and professional delivery. My services include: • Long-form video podcast and interview editing • Podcast audio cleanup, repair, mixing, and mastering • Single-camera, multicamera, and active-speaker editing • Removal of mistakes, pauses, false starts, and unnecessary content • YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, TikToks, and LinkedIn clips • Attention-grabbing hooks, cold opens, and episode teasers • Animated captions, lower thirds, intros, outros, and branded graphics • B-roll, visual storytelling, color correction, and image enhancement • Podcast thumbnails and promotional graphics • Episode titles, show notes, YouTube descriptions, and SEO assets • Platform-ready video and MP3 exports • Uploading, scheduling, and ongoing podcast production support I don’t simply cut between cameras. I shape each episode so the conversation feels natural, the strongest moments stand out, and the final content reflects your personality and brand. I regularly work with DaVinci Resolve, iZotope RX, Descript, Riverside, and other professional post-production tools. I can adapt to your existing production process or create a simple, repeatable workflow for your show. You can expect clear communication, dependable delivery, careful attention to detail, and an editor who genuinely cares about making your podcast successful. Whether you need help with a single episode, an ongoing weekly podcast, or complete video and audio podcast production, send me a message and tell me about your show.
