My face
Hello

Hi, my name is Kush (she/her) and I’m an independent filmmaker and video editor based in Cebu City, Philippines. I’m currently working as a Live Action Video Editor at fewStones, a Singapore-based video production company. Previously, I helped mental health companies and practitioners such as Integrated Psychiatry Institute and Performance Excellence & Recovery Consulting with video and content. I have been a Notion Ambassador since November 2020 and I create Notion templates on the side and I hope Notioners find them very useful. You can visit my work site to view some of the stuff I’ve edited and produced.

Outside of work, I am a self-proclaimed serial hobbyist. Recently, I’ve taken a great interest in brewing coffee at home. I put a lot of time and effort into writing coffee reviews, and I’m working on transferring those to this blog, so please be patient. I love photography as well, and I try to publish my photos online, though I am generally shy about doing this. On any given day, I watch one or two movies. I am fascinated by technology, especially ethical and useful technologies. The World Wide Web has always fascinated me. I enjoy tinkering with the Internet. And I spend most of my time these days thinking about the web—how it works, how it’s changing, and how we can make it a better place. I feel as though I grew up on the Internet, and that it has taught me a lot of what I know. Technology has often found ways to pull me into new hobbies like making websites. I’ve made lots of websites that I forgot most of them.

If you’re interested in knowing, here’s what I’m up to right now
