FREELANCE WORK
Welcome to my collection of freelance work as a filmmaker and editor, showcasing a range of projects from narrative storytelling to branded content. Each project reflects a deep commitment to visual storytelling, rhythm, and emotional impact, whether I’m behind the camera, shaping a narrative in the edit, or collaborating with clients to bring their vision to life. This body of work highlights both creative versatility and technical precision across a variety of styles and formats.
