Video Editor | YouTube & Documentary | 150M+ Views

Need a video editor trusted by Mark Rober (80M subs), Veritasium (20M subs), Discovery+ and the BBC? With 19 years in post-production and 150M+ YouTube views delivered, I turn raw footage into content that holds audiences and drives results. What sets me apart is the rare combination of broadcast-grade craft and YouTube-native strategy. I've cut documentaries for Discovery+ and the Olympic Channel, earned 2 D&AD Pencils, won the London Antville Music Video Editor of the Year, and had work screened at Slamdance and Cannes. I've also edited for the world's top science and tech YouTube channels. Most editors do one or the other. I do both. Here's what I can do for you: 🎬 YouTube video editing — long-form, shorts, series, channel strategy 📽 Documentary editing — feature-length, series, branded documentary 📺 Broadcast & branded content — commercials, explainers, corporate video 🎵 Music video editing — award-winning track record 🎙 Post-production consulting — workflow, structure, pacing, storytelling strategy I work in Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, and Avid Media Composer and can step in at any stage of post. ✅ Top Rated on Upwork — 5-star rating across all completed contracts ✅ Credits: Mark Rober, Veritasium, Discovery+, BBC, Olympic Channel, Google, Toyota, Sony PlayStation, Red Bull, Mastercard, Rivian ✅ 2× D&AD Pencil winner ✅ London Antville Music Video Editor of the Year ✅ Work screened at Slamdance Film Festival and Cannes ✅ Collaborated with directors Edgar Wright and Joe Cornish ✅ 19 years of professional post-production experience Send me a message with a brief on your project and I'll come back to you within a few hours. Whether you need a single edit or an ongoing editing partner, let's talk.
