I’ am an avid cinema goer, lover of art and a mad dancer.  I’m addicted to storytelling and narrative crafting, coffee and graphic novels.  My favourite pre-Covid19 pastimes included, travel and making gin cocktails. Currently I love wandering around aimlessly finding stuff to eat…


I have more than 20 years’ experience in the film & TV industry.  I have produced, directed, researched, scripted, filmed and edited many hours of broadcast television, online shorts and promos.  I’ve edited in excess of 30 hours of feature length factual film and I have won a SAFTA for Best Achievement in Editing for a Documentary Feature in 2015 and was nominated again in 2016.  


I have an intense love for crafting narrative, focussing the viewer, manipulating the pace and telling stories.


I graduated with a B.Dram degree from Stellenbosch University but still continue to train at an Apple Certified facility on a yearly basis, updating my knowledge of editing software and trends so I can add maximum value to the documentaries and projects I become involved in. 

Genre's I work in most often
  • Reality
  • Feature Length Documentaries
  • Promos & Short Form
  • Training Videos
