About
I’m an experienced documentary film and TV editor specializing in crafting meaningful human stories that move people. I edited and co-produced the acclaimed “Dad’s in Heaven with Nixon” (available on Amazon, Apple TV and other platforms) about the family journey of Chris Murray, an artist with autism growing up at a time when autism was little-understood. Other work includes “Plastic Paradise: The Great Pacific Garbage Patch,” films for the National MPS Society that helped bring a rare disease to light, and numerous short-form projects including trailers and promos.
As an editor, I’m a hard worker who is dedicated to my craft and a self-starter who can work from a large volume of material to find the essential narrative. I’m also an enthusiastic collaborator, open-minded, and flexible about working relationships. I excel at music selection/editing as well as sound design and final color.
