About Me
I’m a London-based video editor, content creator, and filmmaker with a strong focus on shaping story through post-production. My work includes writing and editing the documentary Whitney: Behind the Voice, as well as contributing my editing skills to Five Hound Dog, where I collaborate across a range of creative and commercial projects spanning digital and branded content.
​
I’m currently working at Shell within the Content Engine as an Assistant Editor and Technician, where I contribute my post-production skills across a wide range of projects including documentaries, adverts, webinars, and in-house Shell content. Working across such varied formats has strengthened my ability to move fluidly between different tones, audiences, and delivery requirements while maintaining a consistent standard of creative and technical quality.
​
Alongside editing, I bring experience in post-production supervision, supporting projects from offline through to final delivery. My skill set includes on set sound, colour grading, sound design, and visual effects, working primarily in Adobe Premiere Pro, with experience across the wider Adobe suite including After Effects, Photoshop, and Lightroom, as well as DaVinci Resolve.
​
​My work is driven by the feel of a sequence, how timing, pacing, sound, and image combine to create emotion and meaning. Knowing when to cut, when to hold, and how to build momentum is at the core of how I approach every project. For me, editing is both craft and art, where technical precision and creative instinct come together to shape stories that truly connect.
