About me

I'm a video editor with over a decade of experience working across broadcast television, documentary, news, feature film, and online corporate and commercial content. I'm experienced with Premiere Pro, After Effects, Avid and Davinci Resolve.

I have extensive technical knowledge of post-production workflows and deliverables from my time as a senior member of the post team at ITN Productions, as well as from training at MPC and freelance positions at Warner Bros, Monkey Kingdom and ITV.

Other notable roles include editing broadcast entertainment shows at Sony Entertainment, a global ad campaign for Google, news segments for the BBC, lead assistant for a Bravo reality show, lead assistant for ITV's Dancing On Ice, working on 6 seasons of Made in Chelsea and as the on-site editorial department lead on an NBC feature film shot in the Scottish highlands.

I particularly enjoy collaborating with arts organisations, charities, promoting green technologies, and telling meaningful and impactful stories whether it’s through documentary or scripted projects.
