Say Hello!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.
