Student Story: Simon Risberg

Role: Video Editor

Udacity Student Stories featured inspirational stories about Udacity students who overcame the odds and utilized Udacity to pivot into STEM.

This project was a bit of an orphan due to the video producer leaving Udacity as it was beginning post production. I was given a rough assembly cut, no script and a deadline.

My favorite thing to do when editing is to dive into all the interview footage and discover what amazing story lies beneath. I found an inspiring tale of a double above knee amputee that persevered and is now working as a full-time software engineer with the help of Udacity.
