About me

In such a technologically advanced age, it is creativity and innovative minds that inspire me. I’ve always been captivated by the combination of people’s stories and the tools used to express them. Film, journalism, broadcast, photography, human beings…these are my passions.

Since graduating this past June, I have been focusing my time on my personal goals. I started my own YouTube channel in hopes of learning how to edit videos and how to create captivating content for viewers that I could connect with. This has been one of my most exciting and yet nerve-wracking ambitions. I have learnt so much already and am continuing to move forward with it in hopes of growing my channel and views.

A lot of my previous job experience is in costumer service and I believe it has grown me as a person not only on a professional level, but also on a personal level. I also spent over a year working as a personal assistant for a Real Estate agent with Remax House of Real Estate and that was an incredibly valuable learning experience. It gave me the tools of an office assistant and also taught me how to work independently and in high-stress situations.

With my experience in costumer service and my ability to work in an office setting, I have become very efficient and adaptable to any given situation and work environment. With my degree under my belt, I have the tools to properly analyze and to edit effectively. Having lived in four different countries growing up, as well as studying psychology, I have been introduced to many different cultures and have learnt about the complexities of human beings.

With my newfound passion for film production, editing, and my continuous zeal for story telling, I am confident that I will thrive in an opportunity related to these fields. I am a fast learner and an eager learner. I want to let my creativity and innovative ideas thrive in an opportunity that values imagination.
