FounderYPAbout
I have been creating short-form content since 2019, across very different kinds of work: my own personal content, video editing tutorials, an education channel I grew to 230,000 followers, content for psychedelic-assisted treatment centers around the world, and music videos in LA for major-label artists like Diplo, Polo G, Jutes, Kylie Cantrall, and the All American Rejects. In all, my work has driven more than 200 million views across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook.
I tend to catch these waves early. When short-form took over the music industry, I was one of the producers artists in LA relied on for it. That same shift is now reaching the founder world, and almost no one serious is on it yet.
Most founder video is forgettable because it gets treated like a box to check. I come at it from music and entertainment, where the only job is making something people actually want to watch. I have also worked in sensitive, regulated spaces, so I balance making it engaging with keeping your brand protected.
I build everything around AI now, which lets me do more with every shoot, and I am genuinely excited about where it goes from here.
