With over twelve years technical and creative experience with training at Ravensbourne, VET and the BBC I have developed my craft and passion for editing.
I love helping producers troubleshoot their projects and have earned my wings as an editor in Drama, editing episodes of The Bill, shorts, light entertainment and features. My work has been described as “edgy”, “well paced” and “exciting”.
