About Me

Formerly the Senior Video Editor at Saatchi & Saatchi London, I am a highly experienced creative Editor using Premiere and Davinci Resolve with additional skills in After Effects and Adobe suite. I started my career in music production in 2007 and evolved into editing videos for brands and digital, and gained a senior position at a large global agency. Since then I have been working as a freelancer across a broad spectrum from Corporate, Social, TV, Documentaries, to TVCs and all things digital.
I'm a storyteller! Aside from all the technical aspects of editing, I understand that the proof really is in the pudding. My main talent is to be able to create an emotional connection to the subject through editing exciting and engaging content, coupled with high-end post-production skills and visually appealing graphics.
I am well used to packaging and re-versioning for any purpose, I work fast and am well used to keeping high quality control standards even when creating mass versions of content. I have experience in prepping programs to pass tech and AS-11 creation. I am highly experienced in keeping track of legal, language and image variations between different markets, creating and packaging subtitles and - essentially - being on top of it.
Technically, as well as my main skills editing and grading in Adobe Premiere and Davinci Resolve. I also edit in FCPX and After Effects and I have supplementary knowledge of all the relevant aspects of Adobe suite.
As a senior editor, I am also experienced in creating, working with and managing teams. I can quickly pick up on jobs at any stage and effectively coordinate, synchronise and add value. As well as also adhering to brand playbooks, aesthetic ethos and QCing across a series of content.
I have all the post-production skills you need to make premium video content from cradle to grave, at a senior level, on a global playing field.
