Kauai, originally from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, is a film and video editor based in Portland, OR. His experience spans a wide range of content, with a particular emphasis on commercials and documentary style branded content.

His talent has drawn collaborations with top brands like UGG, Amazon, FitBit, Meta, Lancôme and others, illustrating his knack for crafting dynamic and engaging narratives. A hallmark of Kauai's editing is his profound use of sound to enhance narrative flow, making each piece not only visually striking but also a rich auditory experience. This sensitivity towards sound, along with his keen aesthetic sense, innovative storytelling, and attention to cultural nuance, sets his work apart.

Austen Deery cut his teeth as an editor at Voyager, where he quickly rose to his Senior Editor position working on numerous national broadcast campaigns for brands such as Kia, American Express and META. He began his commercial editing career crafting beautiful director's cuts for Voyager's roster and almost immediately became in constant demand. His eye for kinetic motion and ear for cinematic sound design combined with his storytelling sensibilities make him a rare triple threat. He's currently cutting a very high profile, feature-length documentary that will fully take advantage of all of Austen's many unique talents as an editor.
