My Story

I'm a full-time freelancer, working with clients on video editing and podcast production, including through Upwork. I'm a Computer Science graduate with professional experience in digital media production, podcast storytelling, and communication design, and I've produced and managed more than 100 podcast episodes across research, policy, society, technology, and Web3 topics. Beyond my work, my heart lies at the intersection of technology and society, where I delve into the profound impacts that technology etches across our lives, all while pondering its vast implications for society as a whole.

With an insatiable curiosity, I'm driven by the passion to unravel how technological advancements intricately mold our world. My journey involves active participation in discussions/podcasts and immersive research focused on unraveling the societal tapestry woven by emerging technologies.
