After graduating with a Fine Art degree, I entered the film and television industry in 1997 as a runner, then assistant editor in commercials and promos with Sam Sneade. I then began assisting in drama on both tv and feature projects such as HUSTLE for Kudos, THE CANTERBURY TALES for BBC and

KING ARTHUR for Jerry Bruckheimer Films.

​

I've edited many award-winning dramas over the years including Otto Bathurst’s CRIMINAL JUSTICE

starring Ben Whishaw, for which I received a BAFTA craft nomination and won an RTS craft Award.

I also cut Otto's FIVE DAYS starring David Oyelowo and Rory Kinnear (also receiving a BAFTA nomination for editing). I have edited Luke Watson’s THE VILLAGE and Peter Hoar’s BREAKING THE MOULD and in 2016, Ben Anthony's DON’T TAKE MY BABY won a BAFTA for Best Single Drama.

​​

Other credits include THE LAST KINGDOM for Peter Hoar; GUERRILLA, directed by Sam Miller and John Ridley and starring Idris Elba; CURFEW and HALF BAD: THE BASTARD SON AND THE DEVIL HIMSELF  for Colm McCarthy and WAR OF THE WORLDS for Richard Clark.

 

Recent credits include feature BALLYWALTER (co-editor) for Prasanna Puwanarajah (BFI/Screen Ireland/ Screen Northern Ireland) and THE VELVETEEN RABBIT for Apple TV/Magic Light Pictures.

KIDNAPPED: THE CHLOE AYLING STORY for Al Mackay airs later this year for BBC Studios/River Pictures.

 

In 2022, I won a BAFTA craft award and an RTS craft award for IT'S A SIN, directed by Peter Hoar which aired in 2021 on Channel 4 and HBO Max. NOLLY, also by Peter, aired in 2023 on ITVX.

I also won an WFTV Award for Contribution To The Medium in December 2023.
