Kimberly Villarruel is a creative video editor based in Southern California with a Bachelor’s degree in Television, Film & Media Studies.
My portfolio showcases a diverse range of projects I've worked on, including Broadcast TV Commercials, Paid Digital Ads, Corporate Videos, Short Films, and Film Trailers. I also have experience managing the video editing process for Special Events, where every moment is transformed into a memorable story.
Proficiency in industry-standard tools like DaVinci Resolve and Adobe Premiere Pro empowers me to create videos that resonate with both niche audiences and mainstream viewerships. My work is characterized by an ability to engage and connect.
Collaboration is at the heart of my approach. I'm known for working seamlessly with the entire creative team, valuing feedback and ensuring projects are not only efficiently delivered but also of the highest quality.
My journey in the video production industry has led me to wear many hats, from serving as a production assistant to taking on roles as a Script Supervisor and a Digital Imaging Technician (DIT). This multi-faceted experience has given me a comprehensive understanding of the creative process.
Beyond my professional pursuits, I'm also an avid tennis enthusiast, finding both challenge and relaxation on the court. It's a sport that not only keeps me active but also provides a valuable balance to my creative endeavors.
Yet, my ultimate source of inspiration lies in the serene embrace of the mountains. There's something about a mountain retreat that rekindles my creativity and offers a profound sense of tranquility. Whether it's the snowy slopes in winter or the lush trails in the summertime, these natural settings become my sanctuary, allowing me to clear my mind and find solace in the beauty of the great outdoors.
