Kavishan Jayawardhane
Video Editor, Volunteer, and Student in Matugama, Sri Lanka
The most exciting thing in the world for me is getting completely lost in my work. I love when I lose track of time, forget where I am, and just completely exist within a single task. Then again, I'm also a big-time people person and self-proclaimed extrovert so I guess I'm a bit complex, but hey, aren't we all?
I'm reading BSc. (Hon) Tourism Management degree program in the Sabaragamuwa University of Sri Lanka and reading Diploma of Photography in The National Photographic Art Society of Sri Lanka. I got a Diploma in Journalism from the Sri Lanka College of Journalism, which was perfect for me because I got to combine my love of video editing. I also learn online about video animation, video creativity, Cinematography, and videography.
In 2018, I was craving some stimulation so I decided to transform my casual hobby of helping friends and family get jobs into a full-on side hustle. This decision lit a fire under me that changed my life. I'm still working in higher education at the moment, but I've shifted my goals to pursuing those video editing Studio and Ceylon Herbal product businesses full time. I feel so alive when I'm working on my businesses and it gives me the chance to work with people and get lost in my editing. It's kind of perfect for me.
I'm very friendly so if you ever want to talk about anything (especially tourism, journalism, video editing) send me a message!
