Professional Biography

I’m a multidisciplinary designer, animator, and video editor with a degree in Art & Entertainment Technologies from The University of Texas at Austin. My background spans video editing, storyboarding, graphic design, and live event production, all rooted in a deep understanding of how to bring ideas to life on screen. While at UT, I founded West 25th Media, a creative studio where I’ve collaborated with brands like Horizon Industries, Bellick Bakes, and StevenInStride, developing everything from logos and animations to music videos and branded content. I also honed my corporate design skills at Enboarder, crafting pitch decks, newsletters, and branded merchandise that elevated their internal and external communications.

Most recently, I’ve worked as a Video Editor and Videographer for Brand Innovators, creating short and long-form content spotlighting Fortune 500 brands such as McDonald’s and Molson-Coors. Before that, at Chive Media Group, I sharpened my storytelling voice through copywriting and digital publishing, producing visuals and GIFs tailored to The Chive’s unique tone. Whether it’s designing, editing, or animating, I’m driven by crafting visuals that connect, turning creative strategy into stories that move.
