What I'm looking for

I seek collaborative film/TV editing roles where I can lead narrative-driven edits, manage dailies and workflows, grow creatively, and contribute to award-calibre productions on streaming and theatrical projects.

I am a senior film editor with 6+ years' experience shaping raw footage into compelling narratives for movies, TV series, and streaming platforms.

I specialise in offline and online editing workflows, dailies management, colour grading, sound design, and quality control, and I regularly use Avid Media Composer, Adobe Premiere Pro, and DaVinci Resolve.

I have led edits and delivered first cuts at Blink Studios since January 2020, organised and synced dailies, created proxies, and integrated graphics, sound design, and VFX to enhance storytelling; my work includes projects such as Collision Course, Shanty Town, Phoenix Fury, Princess on a Hill, and To Kill a Monkey.

I am passionate about sharp pacing, visual continuity, and emotional impact, and I bring a collaborative, director-focused approach to help productions reach award-calibre quality.
