I’m Jawad Ali, a website designer and video editor from Pakistan.

A snapshot of who I am, what I do, and a few quirks that make me unique!

Student Life

I am currently pursuing a degree in Software Engineering with a stellar 3.6+ CGPA. Balancing academics with my other interests has been a journey, but it’s one I’ve thoroughly enjoyed.

Professional Experience

I’ve been a Freelance Video Editor for over 2 years, honing my craft to bring stories to life through compelling visuals. When I’m not piecing together footage, I dive into Web Development, where I create seamless, user-friendly experiences on the web.

Fun Fact: I once spent an hour debugging only to find out the problem was a missing semicolon. Classic developer moment!

Skills

  • Video Editing (Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects)
  • Web Development (JavaScript, React, Next.js, Node.js)
  • Creative Problem Solving
  • Time Management (also known as "How to finish everything 5 minutes before the deadline")

Soft Skills

  • Independence and Initiative: I’m accustomed to working with minimal supervision, ensuring tasks and projects are completed efficiently. This allows me to meet deadlines while sparing others the need to closely oversee my work.
  • Attention to Detail: I thrive on creating designs and user interfaces with precision and care, ensuring every element is polished to perfection. For me, quality always takes precedence over quantity.
  • Self-Motivation and Discipline: My self-motivation and disciplined approach to work mean I can tackle any task independently, whether it’s a long-term project or something that needs urgent attention.

Who Am I Outside of Work?

Outside of my professional life, I enjoy exploring new technologies, binge-watching sci-fi series, and perfecting the art of making instant noodles (an essential student skill).
