I’m a seasoned film and television editor with over twenty years of experience across media production and post-production. I originally trained as a cinematographer, but my real passion is crafting stories through editing—I’m a storyteller at heart, driven by the belief that a good story is at the center of everything I do. After living in London and New Zealand for two decades, I returned with my family to Clam Harbour, Nova Scotia, where we’re continuing to create the next chapter of our story. I’ve edited a wide range of episodic television and documentary work, and I also contribute to corporate and social content. Whether I’m shaping a feature documentary or building highlight reels and promotional packages for live events, I’m always looking for fresh challenges and opportunities to tell new stories—connecting my love of science fiction, photography, music, and film to the editing process.
