About
In short
I'm a short-form video editor who specializes in podcast clipping, high-retention storytelling, and content built for how people actually watch TikTok, Reels, and Shorts.
I've run my own content channels, so I understand what actually keeps someone watching, not just what looks good in a timeline. I don't see myself as only an editor. I like being part of clip selection, trend research, and the bigger conversation about what a channel should post next. I also adapt easily to any editing style, whether that means matching a channel's existing look or following an agency's brief to the letter.
Podcast clipping
Digging through long-form conversations to find the stories and moments that work as standalone clips.
Retention editing
Short-form stories built around the full curve: hook, setup, escalation, payoff and rewatchability.
Motion graphics
After Effects motion graphics and kinetic typography for extra visual polish.
Content strategy
Clip selection, trend research and performance review that feed back into the next edit.

Strategy
Content & platform strategy
- Treat short-form as a full distribution system, from the hook through retention and payoff to the engagement and reach that follow.
- Read performance data and viewer behavior to spot where hooks, pacing, topics or structure need work, then feed that back into the next edit.
- Think like a content manager: what's worth clipping, what's worth testing next, and how to keep a steady short-form pipeline coming out of long-form content.
