About

I’m a Post Production Manager & Video Editor with 30+ years of experience in film, advertising, and branded content. My passion is bringing stories to life — every cut, transition, and frame is an opportunity to transform ideas into engaging visual narratives that connect with audiences. After building a successful career in Venezuela’s advertising industry, I moved to the U.S. six years ago and have since continued my journey at Virgin Voyages, where I lead post-production projects that showcase the brand’s bold and innovative spirit. Throughout my career, I’ve collaborated with top global agencies (BBDO, Leo Burnett, Saatchi & Saatchi, Publicis, ARS) and production houses (Soda Producciones, Whiskey Films, Origami Films, Oviedo Studios, among others). I’ve had the privilege of creating campaigns for world-class brands including Pepsi, Kellogg’s, Heinz, McDonald’s, Chrysler, Procter & Gamble, Diageo, Empresas Polar, Coca-Cola, Nestlé, HBO, Discovery Channel, UNICEF, VERIZON, and VIRGIN VOYAGES. • Earned 120+ international and national awards, including a pre-nomination for the Academy Awards (Oscars) for work with Inca Movie. • Edited the award-winning documentary The Miami Kids and the Maya (Xtreme Pictures), officially selected at multiple international film festivals, including Oniros Film Awards, Independent Shorts Awards, and Social Impact Film Festival. • Led creative teams on major campaigns across Latin America and the U.S. • Skilled in post-production management, storytelling, and advanced editing tools (Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, AI-assisted workflows). • Known for blending creativity with technical expertise to deliver compelling visual stories across TV, cinema, and digital platforms
