How did you get to work with Youtubers?
"One of my favorite content creators was Jenn Im. I was in the car on the way to an event when I saw that she posted an Instastory looking for video editors.
I immediately grabbed my laptop out of my bag, linked my Wi-Fi to my phone hotspot, and emailed her my portfolio. I was the first person to email her. She liked my work and wanted to try working together.”
