I have played music for well over 20 years, spending 11 of those years teaching private lessons on various instruments, all after getting my degree in studio music and jazz from the University of Miami Frost School of Music. I have used Logic Pro X daily since 2014, both for passion projects and freelance work. Since COVID, I've been teaching remote music lessons as well as leasing my music to multiple indie films and creating DJ mixes and mashups for various events.

𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭-𝐕𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐕𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐨 𝐄𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐨𝐫 / 𝐕𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐨 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐞𝐫 / 𝐌𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐞𝐫 / 𝐕𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐫 | 𝐔𝐩𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐄𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 | 𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 + 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐕𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐨 | 𝐓𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐬 / 𝐂𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐒𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐬 | 𝐌𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐬 | 𝐕𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐨 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐟𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐬 + 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬 Trusted by Upwork Enterprise clients and backed by 12+ years in video production, I deliver polished corporate video, executive communications, customer stories, brand content, social cutdowns, and motion graphics for cross-functional teams and large organizations. With a marketer’s mindset and a brand storyteller’s touch, I create video content that supports real business and communication goals. I shoot, edit, and animate videos that look great, engage the right audiences, and fit into a broader marketing or communications strategy. Beyond individual deliverables, I also help clients professionalize and streamline their video production workflows, quality standards, and best practices. Whether I’m working on a one-off campaign asset or a larger content initiative, I think in terms of the bigger strategic picture, helping teams create sharper, more consistent, and more effective video content. I also stay current with modern production tools that improve speed and efficiency without compromising quality. I pair my years of creative expertise with AI-assisted workflows for transcript generation, audio enhancement, and custom graphic asset generation when useful, helping streamline production while keeping the focus on creative judgment, brand consistency, and final polish. 𝐓𝐲𝐩𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐨𝐬 𝐈 𝐝𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫: • Corporate interviews + executive communications • Testimonials + customer stories / case studies • Brand + marketing videos (web + paid social) • Product / SaaS videos (launch, demo, explainer) • Social-first cutdowns from interviews, webinars, and events • Motion graphics packages (titles, lower thirds, charts, explainers) 𝐕𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐲 + 𝐎𝐧-𝐋𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 I’m also an experienced director, DP, and videographer, with extensive experience shooting corporate interviews, testimonials, events, documentary-style b-roll, and branded content. Because I work across concept development, production, and post-production, I approach shoots with the finished edit already in mind. I understand what coverage, performances, sound bites, visuals, and technical choices will ultimately make the story work in post — and can carry a project from initial concept and scripting through the shoot, edit, motion graphics, and final delivery. I can work as a solo producer/shooter for lean productions or build and manage a larger crew when the scope requires it. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐥𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐝-𝐭𝐨-𝐞𝐧𝐝 (𝐚𝐬 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐝): Creative direction • messaging • scripting/interview development • pre-production planning/logistics • crew booking/management • on-location production • post-production editing • motion design • delivery-ready final assets 𝐇𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬: • Delivered Upwork Enterprise engagements with tight timelines and multi-stakeholder review cycles • Supported fundraising and partnership efforts for mission-driven organizations • Helped brands expand reach with high-performing marketing content and social cutdowns • Produced book marketing trailers for major publishers, including NYT-bestselling titles/authors • Authored the internal handbook on creative + technical capture best practices for a top global e-learning software company
