For the past 28 years, I’ve learned the rules of narrative editing under the mentorship of some of the finest storytellers in the business.

From Lasse Hallström and Andrew Mondshein, I learned the foundations of story and structure. Wes Anderson taught me the power of detail. Dylan Tichenor showed me how performance shapes a scene. Steven Spielberg and Michael Kahn instilled in me a deep understanding of pacing.

But the most important lesson I’ve learned—across every project, every mentor, every frame—is empathy.

Empathy is what allows me to step inside a character’s head and make decisions in the cutting room with confidence and precision. It’s what allows me to understand not just what a scene says, but what it feels like.

Empathy also extends beyond the screen. Whether I’m collaborating with a director, showrunner, or producer, I bring the same level of sensitivity and care to our creative relationship as I do to the story itself.

Narrative tone is empathy in motion. That’s what I bring to the table.

So—how can I serve you and your project?
