// ABOUT ME

 

I'm an Editor, based in London and hailing from the mean streets of Warwickshire. I've cut TV documentaries for the BBC, ITV, Sky Atlantic, Discovery Channel and others.

My passion is drama and comedy, and I've edited a whole bunch of short films which have screened at festivals around the world, winning (and losing) awards as they go.  I've also cut music promos and hundreds of hours of promotional content.

My dad used to read classic novels to me to get me to sleep, so I have a love of storytelling hardwired into my brain. I grew up watching comedy, sci fi and melodramas, so I still count "Star Trek 2:The Wrath of Khan" as a pinnacle of cinematic expression. Along with "Airplane!" and "Sideways".

When i'm not working I watch films and comedy shows, go hill walking to combat my blubberousness, and attempt to keep my foot out of my mouth.

I recently completed my second professional short film as Writer/Director. My first, "Self Help". was selected for over 20 festivals worldwide, which was nice.
