I tend to take on everything myself. I genuinely enjoy helping others and learning new things, but that sometimes leads me to drift into tasks outside my focus.

About Edward
Bio
I began my journey studying computer science, but my curiosity led me to a local DIY workshop called MakerPlace. There, I explored carpentry, 3D printing, laser CNCs, and textiles—bringing my ideas to life and selling them. From there, I pivoted to videography, and I soon found myself filming weddings and working with local businesses. I eventually joined a company as a video editor, working my way up to Video Marketing Director, where I led a team of seven. Recognizing my leadership, the company asked me to head the IT department, which I led for three years. Now, I’ve taken the leap to pursue my own business ventures—and that’s where I am today.
