hi,

i’m a bilingual multimedia creative—a video journalist, creative producer, and editor currently based in san francisco. not too long ago, i developed, directed and co-hosted an original cultural food pilot at jubilee media, a genz/millennial-obsessed video company with 10 million youtube subscribers. i was an associate producer on wired’s video team (you know, the science and tech brand that does all the celebrity autocomplete interviews that somehow shows up on your feed). i’ve worked with the new york times, producing a follow-up visual piece on ballroom dancegoers reeling in the wake of the monterey park shooting. i’ve also teamed up with leading online creators and brands as an editor and producer. now, i am the video producer at SFGATE — the largest media outlet on the west coast. i translate complex news into approachable, snackable videos while also producing whimsical pieces that capture the spirit of the bay area. i’ve been doing stuff!

as a lover of digital web content and a trained multidisciplinary storyteller, i craft concise pitches, write scripts, produce, film, host, and edit for both video and audio. some of my latest journalism work has been recognized by the society of professional journalists’ 2020 mark of excellence awards. i’ve been featured on british vogue, jubilee media, and voyagela. my myers-brigg is esfj (“people mastery”) — connecting with humans is my strong suit.

went to film school but the digital world wide web will always be my go-to cinema \_(ツ)_/.

<3,

melissa
