Since my first video editing job in 2010 (an advertisement for a local arts summer camp), I have found endless pleasure in filming and editing promotional material, and using digital content as a means of publicizing what organizations of any size are doing to brighten the world a little bit. From videos for the March of Dimes to shorter montages, I am committed to ensuring every aspect of the video—the music, cuts, features and graphics—are to the client's liking. Alongside video editing, I am also an enthusiastic writer, both professional and creative. I have produced articles for magazines like Psychology Today and The Culture Trip, but also enjoy writing short copy for flyers, website blurbs, and social media posts. I always enjoy the challenge of adapting to a company or organization's specific style of communication, and conveying their message in a concise but effective way.

    A teaser trailer for the Sarah Lawrence College student film, "An Evening With Tony".

    uniE608 Creative Summer Promotional Video
    After attending an arts summer program for 4 years, I pitched a potential advertisement to the camp director to bring in more recruits. Throughout the four-week program, I filmed friends, counsellors and artists hard at work as they prepared for the Festival Day that concludes each year. In addition, I conducted interviews with members of staff and campers to obtain a greater sense of what it feels like to participate in such an enriching program year after year. videoeditor video advert
    uniE608 LARP at Sarah Lawrence College
    As part of a student auction, I was commissioned to create a quick promotional video for Sarah Lawrence College's Live Action Roleplay (LARP) club. Using footage provided by club members, as well as interviews I filmed myself, I pieced together a rough cut set to music requested by the client. video promotional videoeditor
    uniE608 Kate
    Relationships begin and end for a multitude of reasons, but perhaps the most common reason is a lack of trust and communication. In this film, a man struggles with a newfound yet uncontrollable power, as well as a disintegrating relationship. video videoeditor colorcorrection shortfilm
