Weak hooks, slow pacing, and low retention are the biggest reasons short-form content underperforms. My editing focuses on solving exactly that, fast-paced, retention-driven edits built for how people actually watch on TikTok, Reels, and Shorts. Over the past 4 years I've edited short-form and long-form content for agencies, media companies, coaches, and creators, including consistent work with Los Angeles-based company Last Shot Media, Producing Reels, Shorts, and creator-style content for fitness and finance creators. Additionally i worked as a freelancer with agencies like Gfxstudio and Ubex covered YouTube editing, social content, ads, and short-form videos for brands Some results from recent work: _Edited 50+ short-form videos per month for ongoing agency clients _Delivered 100+ edits in a single month on a higher volume, lower-complexity project _Multiple edited videos have crossed millions of views, several recent edits have hit thousands of views within days What I bring to every project: _Fast, clean cuts built around retention and pacing _Motion graphics, animated subtitles, and sound design _Platform-specific editing (TikTok, Reels, Shorts, YouTube) _Quick turnaround without sacrificing quality Tools: Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, CapCut If you need an editor who understands what keeps viewers watching, let's talk about your project.
