Selected Video Work
Hi, I’m Kia! I'm a filmmaker and video editor with 6+ years of experience telling authentic stories for corporate clients, media companies, and brands. Whether I'm behind the camera or in front of a timeline, I love turning raw footage into a compelling, cohesive narrative. My work often focuses on process and distilling complex ideas down into accessible, genuinely engaging content. My clients have included José Andrés Media, The Dead Wax Show, and ROOM: A Sketchbook for Analytic Action, among others. I'm fluent in Adobe Premiere Pro, Davinci Resolve, and comfortable across the full post-production pipeline, from pre-production planning through final delivery.

I worked with ROOM as a producer and editor to create a video marking the receipt of a prestigious award and explain the unique importance of their work in the field of psychoanalysis.

The video is the first in an ongoing series we're working on to celebrate their 10-year anniversary and help them meet fundraising goals.

Project: 2025 Gala award honoree video
Client: ROOM: A Sketchbook for Analytic Action
I worked with the team at ROOM to sort through over 4 hours of interview footage and distill it down into two videos: a 5-minute version to be screened at their annual fundraising gala and a 10-minute version to live on their website. The video features testimonials from the honoree’s friends and colleagues to explain the importance his work in the field of psychoanalysis and political peacemaking.
Project: The Dead Wax Show
Client: Scary Pockets
As an editor for the Dead Wax Show, a weekly video podcast on music production, I oversaw the post production process from start to finish. Each week I edited ~120 minutes worth of footage down into 3 compelling segments for YouTube and Patreon subscribers at various paid tiers. I researched terms and gear, sourced b-roll, produced graphics, collaborated with hosts and producers through multiple rounds of feedback, and created clips for social media to drive engagement and subscribership. I developed efficient multicam work flows and turned deliverables around on a tight deadline to get over an hour’s worth of polished content out every week.

Project: Test Kitchen
Client: José Andrés Media
I worked with the team at JAM to cut episodes for their “Test Kitchen” series on YouTube, one example of which you see here. For each episode I reviewed over an hour’s worth of footage, and made decisions for continuity, clarity, and entertainment value. I worked through multiple rounds of feedback with producers and marketing teams to showcase the creativity of the chefs working in the test kitchen and to create a compelling story arc that explains complex cooking techniques.
