Steven Pender
Hi, I’m a Creative Producer, Video Editor, and Audio Engineer with a passion for helping brands tell their stories through engaging video, podcasts, and social media content.
In 2024, I founded HoneyPod - a full-service podcast and content production company, where I’ve produced and edited hundreds of podcast episodes, short-form clips, and full-length videos for entrepreneurs, businesses, and growing brands. HoneyPod also afforded me the opportunity to launch several shows, giving me critical project management experience. Along the way, I’ve honed a skillset that blends hands-on editing expertise (Premiere Pro, Audition, After Effects, Photoshop, Final Cut, and Descript) with content strategy - everything from scripting and audio engineering to creating social campaigns that capture attention on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube Shorts.
Now, I’m looking to bring this experience into a full-time company role where I can continue creating high-quality content while also growing within a collaborative team. My goal is to bring consistent value to a creative team while continuing to sharpen my craft and expand my impact.
Outside of work, I’m proud to be from Detroit, and I carry that spirit of creativity, resilience, and grit into everything I do.
