VIDEO PRODUCTION

Real residents, real services, real impact. The best videos I produce help people understand the programs that shape their community. From planning the shoot to editing in Adobe Premiere Pro, I work to raise awareness and keep topics approachable.

INVESTING IN OUR COMMUNITY

A testimonial series for the City of Paramount's Home Improvement Program. I interviewed residents who used the program and shaped their experiences into short stories that make a public service feel accessible.

INTRODUCING: PARAMOUNT NOW

After working on the visual design for Paramount NOW, the city's service request app, I was tasked with producing its launch video. The app replaced the city's former platform, so my launch had one job: get residents to understand what they're being asked to download.

thinking vertically

Residents don't go looking for City news, so I bring it to their feeds.

I shoot and edit vertical videos for the City of Paramount's social channels, built for how people actually watch: on their phones, often with the sound off, and one thumb away from scrolling past. Every video opens with a hook and uses on-screen text to turn a city update into something worth stopping for. I then track reach, engagement, and watch time to make the next one better.

LET'S TALK PARAMOUNT

A monthly series that brings residents face-to-face with their mayor. Each episode pairs City updates and upcoming events with an "Around Town" visit to local landmarks and hidden gems. I produce, shoot, and edit the series, keeping the mayor's message conversational and easy to watch.

NEW BUSINESS ANNOUNCEMENTS

When a new business comes to Paramount, residents hear it from us first. These short-form videos build buzz before opening day and give the community something to get excited about. They're also some of the City's most shareable posts, turning local business news into a steady driver of online engagement.

PARTICIPATORY BUDGETING IN LONG BEACH

What does it take to change your community? Produced for the nonprofit Long Beach Forward, this series follows residents through participatory budgeting, a process that lets locals decide directly how part of a public budget is spent.

LOCAL BUSINESS, LOCAL CHARACTER

Filmed and edited for K Taylor Insurance Solutions, this reel spotlights a local business the agency protects— Beyond Two Rings in La Habra. The video was part of the video-first strategy to lift the firm's average post engagement.

PODCASTS

Great audio makes listeners feel like they're in the room. I record with whatever setup I have, then edit and mix in Adobe Audition until the episodes sound clean and consistent.
