I've been a professional editor since 2010 and have worked on a number of different projects ranging from feature films, documentaries, branded content and much more.
My passion for film began when I was thirteen. Growing up in Princeton, New Jersey, I snuck onto the set of A Beautiful Mind when it came to town. I couldn't resist. I was curious.
I befriended the sound mixer and he let me shadow him for the afternoon. After witnessing the camaraderie, excitement, and creativity of a film production, I was hooked. Getting to meet Russel Crowe didn't hurt either.
I pursued filmmaking as a student at Bard College. I came to focus on post-production because I love being able to craft and tell compelling stories. I pride myself on working with producers and directors to bring their visions to life.
