When lions hunt, the older, weaker males—who are no longer strong enough to chase prey—position themselves on one side of the grasslands and let out a massive, terrifying roar. The younger, faster lionesses wait silently on the opposite side. Terrified by the roar, prey instinctively run away—right into the trap where the real danger awaits. If the prey did the opposite, if they ran toward the roar instead of away from it, they might survive the trap. Like prey running toward the roar of hunting lions, I believe in facing fear head-on rather than avoiding it. In my ten years working in post production, I’ve embraced the challenges and pressures of the craft, knowing that true growth comes from tackling the toughest edits and creative obstacles. I’ve always believed that great editing is as much about feeling as it is about technique and I’ve worked hard to develop both—learning how to craft compelling stories while mastering the tools that bring them to life. There’s always something new to learn, refine, and perfect and I approach every project with that mindset, knowing that great storytelling is built on both skill and curiosity.
