In a nutshell,

I'm a London based Edit Trainee represented by the ScreenSkillls Trainee Finder programme 2025-26. I have Netflix feature film experience and am currently seeking my next Edit Trainee position within film and high-end TV.

In an ostrichshell,

I made my first film when I was 13 and I haven’t looked back since. It's a passion that has led me to tell and discover all sorts of stories and work with hundreds of amazing people.

I have a particular love for action thrillers and comedies, which lead me to write, direct and co-edit the action comedy short film Wedlock. Wedlock won multiple awards and screened at film festivals across Europe, Canada and the US. This was back in 2021.

Through Wedlock winning 'Best Drama Short' at the 'International Motor Film Awards' I became friends with the incredibly talented French action director Guillaume Pierret. In 2022 Guillaume kindly let me shadow him, the editor Sophie Foudrinoy and the assistant editor Celine Neveu, on the post-production of Balle Perdue 2 (Lost Bullet 2) - a Netflix action crime thriller. 

During shadowing I was sitting in on a meeting with the director and editor reviewing a car stunt sequence that they felt wasn't really working in the edit. Later that day, I asked if I could have a go at recutting that scene - and they said yes.

I presented a few variations of the sequence, and it was hilarious because they hated 90% of the way I'd cut the scene! But there was one drone shot and one reaction shot of the lead character that I'd used in a new way, that they'd not seen before, and they really felt that it made the sequence work much better. That sequence of shots made it into the final cut of the film!

Two years later (2024) I got a phone call from the editor who was gearing up to cut the sequel, Balle Perdue 3 (Lost Bullet 3), who offered me a crazy opportunity - to apply for the role of 'Action Sequence Editor'.

The interview took place over 1 week in Paris, and involved myself and three other editors competing for the role, being given an edit suite, the same 6-hours of rushes shot on 16 different cameras, and told to cut a 2-minute car chase.

It was a mind-blowing week and really pushed my Avid editing skills - grouping the 16 cameras, making selects and building a clear narrative that was also exciting and energetic - I loved the experience! 

Sadly I didn't get the job but I learnt tons about editing action and loads about time management and how to efficiently cut a scene under a massive time pressure - so I'm hugely grateful to Guillaume and Sophie for the opportunity!

Going through this completely affirmed my love of editing and as a consequence I applied to be an Edit Trainee on the ScreenSkills Trainee Finder programme - with the hope that I can gain opportunities to learn from teams within film and high-end TV.

I'm always looking to build connections so do get in touch if you want to chat or meet for a coffee.
