Artistic and creative by nature, I was inspired to film and edit these moments. It was in that moment that I decided to embark on a career in filmmaking.CAREER - As a filmmaker I’ve created successful content for top brands, networks, and film festivals for over 14 years. I've collaborated with other filmmakers as a Producer and Video Editor on successful documentaries such as Dharavi Diary which was nominated at Cinequest, Raindance, and National Geographic film festivals. Dharavi Diary was a powerful story about child recycle workers in Mumbai. By capturing their story on film we were able to raise money for their college tuition. At Lieberman Productions I edited broadcast, web, and social commercials for a variety of brands including Proactiv, Meaningful Beauty, and Häagen-Dazs. In addition to editing, I also contributed to Production as a Videographer and Director. Throughout my career I’ve also worked as a Freelance Video Editor creating broadcast, web, and social content for clients including Apple, Disney, Hoff Productions, Intrepid Creative, MasterClass, national Geographic, Rodan+Fields, and the XFL.As a filmmaker I’ve gained a reputation as a creative and enthusiastic collaborator who thinks outside the box while finishing projects quickly and efficiently. I’m always interested in new ideas, so please reach out if you’d like to collaborate with me on your next project.
