Let's Collaborate

The Journey

With years of experience producing unscripted television, news, and sports content, I've developed an intimate understanding of how stories unfold in real-time. Now, as a film editor, I bring that same instinct for authentic moments and emotional rhythm to narrative filmmaking.

My background in fast-paced production environments has sharpened my ability to identify the heart of a story and craft it with precision. Whether it's finding the perfect beat in a documentary or building tension in a dramatic sequence, I approach every edit with both technical expertise and creative vision.

I believe the best stories emerge from collaboration, and I'm passionate about working with directors and creatives who value thoughtful storytelling and bold choices.

Production Experience

My production background gives me unique insight into the entire filmmaking process, from pre-production planning to post-production finishing completion.
