Post-production work seen on
I'm a video producer and editor who has spent the last five years leading esports content at Halo Studios.
In 2021 I launched the Official Halo Esports YouTube channel and have run it ever since. It has grown to more than 91,000 subscribers and 21 million views across 500+ videos. I manage a content budget of over $100K a year and work with production and broadcast partners to deliver everything from live event coverage to player documentaries. I've also supervised productions for the main Halo channel, including A New Dawn, our Unreal Engine announcement, which passed a million views.
My focus is telling player stories the way traditional sports do. That thinking drove Halo Top 25, which drew nearly 2 million views, and Unlocked, our pro player documentary series.
Before Halo, I spent eight years editing for gaming brands like Hi-Rez, Logitech G and Envy. I was on MrBeast's editing team for videos with over 500 million combined views. I also worked in VFX and editorial on Netflix and Disney productions, including 19 episodes of Pup Academy.
I work fully remote from Alberta, Canada, and I'm open to full-time roles and freelance projects. Let's talk.
Open to senior content, producing, and editing roles in games and esports, and to the right project outside them.
