I am an accomplished producer/editor who has worked in unscripted TV for the last 20+ years, from the REAL WORLD to IMPRACTICAL JOKERS to History Channel’s ASSEMBLY REQUIRED (with Tim Allen).  

On every job, I go beyond expectations. I dig into the footage to create better moments.  I work tirelessly to find reactions and lines that others might miss.  And I have excellent timing with music and dialogue (it helps I was a professional drummer in college AND writer in my 20s).  

My goal is to solve problems with no complaints. I’m well-versed at collaboration and understanding even the most abstract network notes.  And I’ll bring in doughnuts on Friday… if we’re in an office!   

I was born in Chicago and grew up in San Diego where I became obsessed with comedic filmmaking starting at age 13.  That led me to work professionally as a writer, director, producer, and camera operator for corporate videos at age 20. Eventually I found a skill and love for editing unscripted and semi-scripted projects.  

I currently live in Los Angeles and am a member of the Editor’s Guild IATSE Local 700 (so I can do union and non-union work).
