Hello, I'm Marigold "Gigi".
From editing YouTube videos at the age of 10 to leading media production projects for nonprofits and businesses, storytelling has always been at the heart of my journey. With expertise in video editing, motion graphics, social media management, and UX design, I create impactful content that uplifts diverse voices and fosters meaningful connections. I’ve worked on culturally significant projects like producing videos for Native Hawaiian youth programs and managing social media for organizations striving to make a difference. I’m driven by my commitment to amplifying underrepresented voices, especially within the BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities. Whether it’s crafting narratives through post-production or designing user-focused experiences, I aim to inspire, educate, and bring people together. I’m passionate about working on projects that create lasting impact, spark conversations, and bring meaning to the communities and causes I care deeply about.
