I’m an experienced video editor and director with over 20 years working across TV shows, documentaries, films, and commercials. I bring a strong sense of visual storytelling, pacing, and structure to every project, and have recently expanded my creative scope by stepping into a directing role, allowing me to guide projects from concept through post-production with a broader vision. My post-production skill set includes color grading, motion graphics, and audio mixing, and my work has earned multiple awards, including two regional Emmys. Whether I’m working independently or within a collaborative team, I pride myself on delivering high quality, emotionally resonant content that meets both creative and technical demands. I’ve worked closely with directors, producers, agencies, and internal teams to bring a wide range of stories to life, from fast-paced commercials to heartfelt documentaries. I also have hands-on experience with videography, lighting, and camera operation, which deepens my understanding of the entire production process and informs my editorial approach.
