4 years + in full time video creation.
500 + video ads created.
2500 + happy students.
Back in 2017 I quit my 9-5 job in search for a better life. 500 + video ads later, here I am teaching other people to do what I love doing best!
When I'm not creating video ads for clients, or teaching students, I'm either buried in a book, doing jiujitsu or working out!
