Through my studies, I’ve developed strong skills in editing photos, videos, and audio, primarily using the Adobe Creative Cloud and Avid Pro Tools. Since starting at UB in 2020, I’ve explored every corner of media production, from audio recording and camera work to acting in films. In 2024, I became an active member of UB’s Media Study Club, where I collaborated on projects and led workshops to share insights with peers. That same year, I was elected Secretary and helped the club officially gain recognition from UB’s Student Association. I also took part in student films, expanding my acting experience while learning new techniques from fellow filmmakers.
