About

I'm a Film, Video and Digital Media Editor, fifteen years editing professionally for broadcast and feature documentaries. I'm fast, creative and a team-player who is very comfortable with fast-paced editing environments and challenging deadlines. Producers love me because I can solve problems without a lot of hand-holding and I'm great with story. I'm also a Motion Graphics Designer who specializes in creative imagery for documentary. My work appeared in the Peabody Award winning "LENNONYC", and I have created animation that has been featured on PBS, A&E, Discovery and VH1.
