Manchester-based film editor in the final year of a BA (Hons) Film Making degree at MetFilm School Manchester, specializing in editing and post-production. My work to date spans psychological horror, experimental, and documentary shorts, with a particular interest in sound-led cutting, needle drops, audio-driven transitions, and the way rhythm can carry performance and tension. Comfortable in Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve, I work in Avid Media Composer and collaborate confidently within a creative team from offline through to picture lock. My showreel features In The Between (Graduate Film), Amygdala (Experimental Short), and Behind The Curtain (Documentary). This work has strengthened my ability to shape pacing, rhythm and narrative continuity across longer-form pieces. I enjoy crafting needle-drops and audio-led transitions to guide the viewer's emotional journey. I am eager to contribute to future projects and continue developing within a professional post-production environment.
