About Me
I am an independent film editor, journalist, and documentary filmmaker based in Los Angeles, CA. I graduated from Loyola Marymount University’s School of Film and Television in May of 2025 with a major in Film Production and a minor in Journalism.
Throughout my time at university and in my independent career, I’ve worked on a range of narrative and nonfiction projects, and earned festival recognition, including two student Emmy wins. I am a licensed Avid Media Composer Specialist, and I have an advanced skillset in Adobe Premiere Pro, Photoshop, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, ProTools, and Final Cut Pro. As a former journalism student, I’ve also received extensive training in writing, reporting, and legal document analysis.
My passions for both film and journalism are rooted in a desire to tell stories that uplift audiences, and share the perspectives of the voiceless and marginalized. I have a strong belief in the power of stories to serve as a vehicle for empathy, and help us find common ground with one another. Whether my projects seek to shine a light on a hidden struggle, demonstrate a community coming together, or simply make an audience laugh, it is always my goal to produce something that brings us closer together.
