About

As an editor with over 15 years of experience, I have a passion for crafting compelling stories across different genres and platforms. I have worked on award-winning documentaries and narrative films that have premiered at Sundance and SXSW as well as on high-profile docuseries for major networks and streaming services. My most recent projects include On The Fly: Adventures At Altitude, an 8-part series produced by Time Studios for Smithsonian Channel and Paramount +, and Bad On Paper, a feature film directed by Katy Chevigny for Big Mouth Productions. My narrative work has been nominated for an Independent Spirit award and a Gotham award. I have also edited numerous short documentaries for Bloomberg.com that have garnered millions of views online. I have a strong command of Adobe Premiere Pro, Avid Media Composer, and Adobe Photoshop and After Effects. I enjoy collaborating with directors, producers, and other creative professionals to deliver engaging and impactful visual stories.
