Story-Driven Content | Long-Form & Short-Form
Senior Video Editor with 10+ years of experience shaping story-driven content for broadcast, branded, and digital platforms. I’ve edited competition, lifestyle, documentary, and investigative series for networks including Discovery, HGTV, National Geographic, and VH1, and have also worked on shorter branded and digital projects where pacing and clarity are essential. I lead projects from assembly through final delivery, collaborating with producers and creative teams to shape structure, pacing, and story.

Editorial Approach
I work with large volumes of unscripted footage and focus on finding what actually drives the story. That usually means building around character, tightening pacing, and cutting anything that slows things down. I like working closely with producers to get the strongest version of an episode without overworking it.
