“Storytelling is more than syncing a beat to a cut; it’s about capturing the pulse of a narrative.”
For over two decades I’ve been the invisible hand behind award‑winning shorts, broadcast pilots and global commercials. My edit for ‘Little Shit’ helped it win Best British Short at the London Short Film Festival, I shaped the pilot for the comedy drama ‘Spent’ (2024) which was subsequently commissioned for a 6-part BBC series, recently cut episode 2 of BBC’s sitcom ‘Peacock’ (2024) Series 2 and collaborated with the likes of Adidas, Booking, Samsung, ABB, KIA, Wieden+Kennedy, 180 Amsterdam, TBWA on branded content campaigns.
Alongside editing, I recently gained a Post Production Supervision certificate from the National Film and Television School (NFTS), where I expanded my skillset to now include post-production management, budgeting and scheduling. This training adds another layer to my practice—bridging creative storytelling with the organisational expertise required to deliver ambitious projects smoothly from shoot through to delivery.
I’m as comfortable with Avid, DaVinci Resolve and Premiere as I am with team calls and new technologies; more importantly, I bring curiosity, humour and a flexible approach that keeps stories moving forward. I’m currently looking to partner with directors on long‑form narratives, streaming series and international and local campaigns. Let’s cut something unforgettable.
More importantly, I am a kind, caring, and friendly person with a great sense of humour. My expertise spans major NLE systems and post-production workflows, enriched by intermediate skills in After Effects, Photoshop, and Fusion, as well as a solid knowledge of AI prompting and capabilities.
