A meticulous and fast working senior level editor with over 30 years of experience and advanced editing skills utilizing industry standard software including Avid Media Composer, Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, and others with a working knowledge of 3D modeling and animation software such as Blender, and Cinema 4D.

I graduated from Temple University in 1987 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Communications and Theater. and got my first job in the industry shortly after. I was the assistant producer, director, and editor as well as dog walker and bringer of lunches for three years. From there, I went freelance for several years serving in a variety of production roles, until editing became my focus.

I was part of an edit team for a children’s show called Bloopy’s Buddies, followed by a six-month gig on another team cutting stories for a history education video collection. When those were done, I freelanced for Banyan Productions and TLC on a number of their reality-based TV shows, Dating Story, Wedding Story, Baby Story, Makeover Story, and Gimme Shelter, to name a few. Eventually, I landed at Center City Film & Video, where I stayed for 28 years.

Typically supporting producers and directors, I very often collaborated directly with clients as more of a producer/editor to craft their messaging. Creatively interpreting their concepts, from design to final output by shaping their stories from hours of interviews, and supporting them with compelling B roll, stock imagery, motion graphics and music. As the go-to-editor for many clients I consistently earned their satisfaction and retention. Often Managing multiple projects simultaneously, I also consistently met client deadlines.

I was lead editor on many projects over 28 years. Most recently, I cut 13 20-30 marketing videos, over 120 sizzle videos and short social media teasers for more than 10 of StarVista Live’s Malt Shop Memories, Flower Power, 70’s Rock & Romance, and Ultimate Disco cruises, as well as editing daily over 60 All Access Pass sit and chat programs aired on board each cruise. I also created a CGI set extension for an award-winning short Regrets.
