Contact & Bio

Unit 6 Containerville Studios | 35 Corbridge Crescent | London E2 9DS

I am a freelance film editor and colourist based in London.

In 2016 I was nominated for an RTS Craft Award for Editing for my work on the BBC documentary Handmade by Royal Appointment: Steinway & Sons. It was described in the press as “endlessly fascinating” (The Observer) and by the Radio Times as “the pièce de résistance” of the series.

The next documentary I edited was Handmade in Hull (BBC, 2017), which won Best Single Documentary at the Yorkshire RTS Awards as well as being nominated for a Grierson. Dying Swan (BBC, 2018) was shortlisted in the same year.

Based in my own suite in East London I have worked with major brands such as P&G, Audi and Dolce & Gabbana, and with agencies including Saatchi & Saatchi, M&C Saatchi and Leo Burnett.
