I’m a Leicester-based video editor/producer with a strong post-production workflow—script writing support, shot lists, storyboarding, tech recce, and polished finishing. I turn raw, scattered footage into cohesive, watchable edits with sharp pacing, colour, motion graphics, and clean audio. I’ve balanced freelance editing with full-time tech roles, and I can direct shoots and shape the overall look and feel—not just edit the timeline. I’m at my best refining everything in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, and After Effects, delivering consistent, client-ready content.
