Stories cut with precision & pace.
Creative producer and video editor handling the full pipeline from pre-production, production and post-production.
How I work
A clear pipeline from the first idea to the final export.
Pre-production
Creative briefs, scripting, and step-by-step guidance. I help shape the story and guide you on framing, lighting, and audio before you hit record.
Production
Camera settings, angle framing, and technical shoot setup. I ensure optimal lighting, crisp audio, and seamless multi-cam capture on every take.
Post-production
Documentaries, podcasts, reels, and ads. Mastered with sharp pacing, clean audio mixing, immersive sound design, motion graphics, and color grading.
Video that holds attention
Long form
YouTube, documentary and podcast edits with strong pacing, B-roll and sound design.
Short form
Hooks, animated captions and 9:16 framing for Reels, TikTok and YouTube Shorts.
Impact of Climate Change on Mountain Communities
A film about how climate change is changing life for mountain communities, following flood survivors in the villages of Bubur and Talidas.
My university thesis and one of my proudest achievements — made on my own, from pre-production to the final cut.
