A freelance broadcast video editor for 30 years, I have edited and graded everything from Brainiac and Changing Rooms to the Weakest Link and Vlogglebox. Specialising in Avid Media Composer, I also have detailed knowledge of Avid Interplay systems, media management and file wrangling. I also use After Effects, Photoshop, Izotope RX and DaVinci Resolve for fixes and enhancing.

Working on many different programmes, in many different genres, I bring something new to any production. With experience as a director and producer I specialise in editing pilots and working on first series. I’m good at doing all those fiddly on-line bits like blurring and captioning and passing Quality Control. Used to working fast and under pressure, my editing is efficient and accurate. Self-motivation, punctuality and the secret of eternal youth are three of the factors that have kept me a freelancer for so long. Suffice to say I’m a very safe pair of hands.

For the last few years I have been working on location for fast turn-around shows such as Love Island (for UK, US and Australia) and I’m A Celebrity… (UK & Australia), onlining and grading. More recently I have worked on shows mixing comedy with docu-drama and fixed rigs. Between these sport work has kept me busy, but as my CV shows I have worked in just about everything.

With a complete editing suite (Avid MC 2021 Symphony, DaVinci Resolve Studio, Adobe Premiere and After Effects) I’m happy to work remotely on projects.
