Three Decades of Storytelling. From Tape-to-Tape to 8K Digital.
I have spent the last 30 years at the forefront of the visual revolution. My career began in the era of linear tape-to-tape editing, and I have personally navigated every major technological shift since, from the birth of non-linear editing to today’s high-performance 8K workflows.
This journey has given me more than just technical proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite and DaVinci Resolve; it has given me a refined "editor’s intuition." I understand the timeless principles of pacing, narrative arc, and emotional resonance that remain constant, no matter how much the tools change.
Today, I bridge the gap between veteran craftsmanship and modern digital strategy. Whether I’m cutting a high-stakes commercial for an agency, building a sophisticated brand home in Wix Studio or WordPress, or designing motion graphics for a social campaign, I bring three decades of problem-solving experience to the table.
I don’t just deliver files; I provide the seasoned perspective required to turn a vision into a legacy.
