About

From production runner to the edit suite.

I started as a production assistant at MTV UK, then moved into production coordination at BBC Studios — logistics, carnets, budgets, the works — across shoots in Africa and Asia. Somewhere in there I realised the part I actually loved was what happened after the shoot: the edit.

For the last eight years I've cut factual and broadcast content for BBC Worldwide, BBC Africa, Comedy Central, MTV, Channel 4, OBS, ITN, Channel 5, CGTN, Culture Trip and WildAid. I've lived in France, the Czech Republic, China, Singapore, the UK and the Falkland Islands — now based in Cork with my wife and our little one.
