"I thrive best when there are no rules or boundaries, just a willingness to create something great, where it’s okay to be unpredictable. I approach my craft with an open heart that I believe allows the story and its characters to be the most

authentic it can be — “the footage never lies.”  I believe collaboration makes the best cut. I consider the primary goal

as an editor (besides make it play) is to exceed the expectations of those who hire me,

but only after I have exceeded my own - the highest bar I know."​​
