Hi, I'm Kendall.
I'm an Atlanta-based editor, filmmaker, and unapologetic fan of deadlines.
After graduating from Michigan State with a degree in Media & Information and a minor in Fiction Filmmaking, I began my career at Ahptic Film & Digital. There, I worked full-time as an editor on broadcast spots, marketing videos, and social media content. Since moving to Atlanta, I've worked as a freelancer across narrative, commercial, and digital projects—both as an editor and in on-set roles including Second Assistant Camera, Script Supervisor, and Production Assistant. These experiences have given me a well-rounded understanding of the production process.
I approach every project with dedication, positivity, and a deep love for storytelling.
