Why hire me?
Ten years of telling stories that move people, from independent film festivals to Fortune 500 boardrooms.
Five reasons to hire me
I've done it all, and I can prove it
Feature films, documentaries, music videos, national brand campaigns. Not a specialist in one lane, a complete filmmaker who understands every phase of production.
Award-winning, not just experienced
Ontario Arts Council grant. Canadian Arts Council grant. Vimeo Staff Pick. Frameline distribution. Oprah Magazine highlight. A dozen awards for Emma alone.
I run sets and I hit deadlines
Directed 7-person crews. Managed full productions from concept to delivery. Led VFX and motion teams. I don't just edit. I lead, and I deliver on time.
Technical depth, creative vision
Advanced in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, After Effects, and Lightroom. I understand colour science, sound design, and VFX workflows, not just the timeline.
I work across disciplines
I'm a photographer, a novelist, a musician, and a cinematographer. That breadth isn't incidental. It means I bring genuine creative range to every project. When I edit your campaign, I'm drawing on the same instincts I use to frame a portrait, write a scene, or compose a piece of music. The result is work that feels considered from every angle, not just the edit bay.
