I previously worked as a production assistant in London, but decided I wanted to go to university to expand my skills as an all-roundfilm-maker. Having completed a BA in contemporary film and video I have discovered that my true passion is in post-production, specifically in the area of editing. I have a comprehensive understanding of many post-production programmes, including Final Cut Pro, AVID and After Effects, as well as good administrative skills in a post-production environment. I am a hard-working individual who works well as part of a team, whilst also having the initiative to work well on my own. I am always reliable and have a passion for what I do.
