A BIT (MORE) ABOUT ME...
For as long as I can remember, I've loved movies. From making home videos with my friends, to seeing almost any and every movie the day they came in out theaters (when theaters were open), film and filmmaking has been my passion from very early on.
From 2013 to 2022, I lived in LA after transferring to Cal State Northridge and into the Film Production program, one of the most "stellar" film schools in the country. There I discovered my true ground as an editor, and I went on to graduate in 2015 as one of the top editors in the program.
Currently, I am a Senior Manager at Golden Hippo, a marketing company where I manage a team of several editors and QC team members, creating direct-to-consumer content such as Facebook/YouTube Ads and documentary-style video sales letters.
I recently relocated to Folsom, CA for personal growth, and am excited by future opportunities to flex my extensive experience in editing, motion graphics, and project management. I thrive in and anticipate new ways to create every single day, and driven to find the good story in all of us.
