I work with clients in two primary situations. Some are launching a podcast from scratch and need a clear strategy, setup, and production system. Others already have a podcast and want to improve the structure, quality, and consistency of the show while offloading the end to end production process. In both cases, the goal is the same. Define a clear content strategy which fuels everything else, build a podcast that strengthens authority in your industry awhile running smoothly behind the scenes. The work typically begins with defining or refining the foundation of the show. This includes the positioning of the podcast, the target audience, the format of the episodes, and how the podcast supports your broader brand or marketing goals. For new podcasts, this stage includes the full launch plan and setup. For existing podcasts, it focuses on improving the structure, workflow, and growth strategy. Once the direction is clear, I handle the production and operational side of the podcast so each episode moves from recording to publication through a consistent system. Services typically include: • Podcast launch strategy and setup • Podcast growth and positioning strategy • Guest booking and outreach (for interview shows) • Episode preparation and recording coordination • Full episode audio editing and video editing • Podcast copywriting, episode descriptions, SEO, and blog posts • Thumbnail design and visual assets • Publishing, distribution, and content management This is not a basic editing service or short form clip editing only. The focus is the complete podcast. Each episode is produced, prepared, edited, written, and published as a finished asset that represents your brand professionally. The result is a podcast that runs consistently with minimal effort from you while building authority, relationships, and long term content for your business.

🎙️ Podcast launch strategy, show development, and full-service production for founders, consultants, and expert-led brands. For clients who need more than basic editing, I help shape polished, authority-building podcasts with clear positioning, structure, and production support.

Together, we build a podcast that: - Feels aligned with your brand and message - Keeps listeners engaged and coming back - Supports your broader business and content strategy Because a strong podcast isn’t just content. It’s a long-term asset that builds trust, authority, and connection over time. 📈 Client Result One client came to me with 15K monthly downloads but no clear structure or direction.

I have 6 years of experience editing audiovisual projects and now exploring podcast editing. I create, assemble, and refine the audio elements in film, television shows, video games, podcasts or other media production. I study sound direction and post-sound production, and currently use Pro Tools for audio editing. Since I see sound editing as an individual project in which I put my own stamp, I like to take it very seriously. For this, I organize my day based on the hours I'm going to dedicate to editing, which are usually 4 to 7 per day since I also study at the university. As for my availability, I am willing to talk to the client at any time of the day and also to give unlimited revisions, since I am satisfied when the client is satisfied. I like to have a fluid, dynamic and relaxed communication with clients and that they can tell me how they imagine the project, even if they do not know the most technical terms to make it, I also enjoy proposing looks to the project as I have experience in audiovisual projects focused on the creative part of the sound.
