I am a London-based film editor with an intense passion for the craft of filmmaking. My journey in the cinema world began long before I first stepped onto a film set, dreaming up intricate stories in the corridors of my mind since childhood. After I graduated from the Cinema and TV section at the university, I embraced various roles in the industry over the years, from assisting directors to taking on full production responsibilities, including writing. This wide-ranging experience has deeply informed my approach to editing.

 

In every project, I strive to create a deep connection between the audience and the characters, treating the viewer as a co-pilot in an unfolding narrative, fully engaged and constantly questioning. My work is about crafting each moment to let the story resonate with its unique melody and ensuring that each visual elevates the narrative to reach its best potential.

 

Editing is more than a profession for me—it's a genuine passion. I relish the challenge of shaping stories from raw footage, feeling the heartbeat of each narrative, and molding reality to evoke laughter, tears, and profound meaning.

 

After editing numerous high-end TV series and films, I expanded my skills in VFX and using AI skills. My commitment extends beyond technical skill to a responsibility to influence beliefs, emotions, and perspectives through the art of storytelling. With a wealth of experience and an unwavering dedication to filmmaking, I am eager to collaborate on projects that challenge conventions and capture the hearts and minds of audiences worldwide.
