I was invited to Washington DC to cut Barack Obama's historic 30 minute broadcast which aired before the Nov 2008 election. Televised across the US on seven TV networks, it was watched by an audience of 33 million viewers. To be part of such a significant moment in history was an amazing honour.

I've done a bunch of stuff, then I did some other stuff. You might be surprised, in fact, at the stuff I've done. I know I am. You can see my feature film work here:

Unusual combination of strong documentary dialog editing & writing skills and heavy duty visual effects experience. Very creative, very technically strong, I get very involved in projects. I like to keep pushing rocks uphill and I'm always striving to make your film bigger, deeper, richer, better. Finally, I'm likely the only geographer you've ever worked with.
