I'm a video producer and editor in the SF Bay Area, with a B.A. from SF State and a professional certificate from San Francisco Film School. Over the last ten years I've worked on trailers for Crunchyroll, including Attack on Titan and Jujutsu Kaisen 0. I've shot and edited AI course content for Andrew Ng's team at DeepLearning.AI, and delivered 50+ projects through Calhoon Productions, including work for Pixar co-founder Ed Catmull. It started in 2002, making short films at age nine.

Anyone can post a video now. What's harder is making someone stop, watch, and trust you.

Whether you need a full production or an editor who'll get it right the first time, let's talk.
