My Journey of Weaving Impactful Stories Through Video:
Since an extremely tender age, the power of visual storytelling has fascinated me: its ability to spark movements, inspire action, and link people from every corner of the globe. This interest led me deep into the aspects of video editing, both as an art and a science, before setting a path for myself in the media industry.
My career started in 2017 on Fiverr, where I began working as a freelancer offering video editing services to clients from the USA, the UK, and other English-speaking countries. This gave me great insight into different storytelling styles, communicating with clients, and actually practicing editing techniques to suit various audiences. These skills have grown over the years, from a Junior Video Editor in Durban to Senior Video Editor and Motion Graphics Designer at Diginext. The experience of working with big and small brands has taught me the importance of adapting to each client's unique voice while delivering exceptional quality.
It wasn't until 2023 that I took the plunge and founded the Arete Media Agency, bringing together a team of accomplished animators, designers, and editors who ensure the highest quality of content. At the core of our company values are excellence, creativity, and impact, and we work on scaling our clients' brands up with compelling visuals and captivating storytelling. I take immense pride in my leadership at this workplace because here, collaboration is cherished, and excellence in deliverables is cherished from the team.
I am also a science instructor at Mentors, where I get to share my knowledge and enthusiasm with students outside of work. On days off, you could find me experimenting with new visual styles, getting active, or picking up inspiration from the world of nature and cultures.
Every project that I take up is not just work, but rather an opportunity to narrate that story that needs to be genuinely told, make that brand shine, and hopefully make an impact in the end.
