“Experience is what you get while looking for something else.” – Federico Fellini
I started my editing career in Portland, Oregon, first as an Assistant Editor and then as a freelance Editor for corporate clients such as NIKE, Adidas and HP. I moved into the world of “extreme” sports & lifestyle as the Lead Editor on the shows Boardwild (Fox Sports) and Core Culture (TNT & USA) and also on the Summer and Winter X Games for ESPN.
In 2001 I moved to Hollywood, CA to work on Fuel TV for Fox. In 2002, ESPN created a traveling-editor position for me on Sunday Night Baseball and I did that for two seasons. I also started working locally for E!/Style just as the Reality TV genre was kicking off.
From 2006-2013, in between paid projects, I worked with Rhino Films/Foundation Films as the Director and Editor of the feature-length documentary “Robert Williams Mr. Bitchin.” The doc showcases SoCal artist Robert Williams and his extensive career as the premier pioneer of low-brow art. It was released in 2013 and won “Best Documentary” at the San Diego Comic-Con. Watch it on Youtube HERE
2007-2015 I traveled extensively for ABC/ESPN as one of only four Editors for their NASCAR and INDY Car broadcasts. I edited various features and packages (mini-documentaries, really) for the pre-race shows as well as roll-outs and in-race bumpers to air live.
My last indie project is working with the legendary punk rock band, The Adicts, producing and editing videos for their official Youtube channel as well as creating and projecting video for their live shows.
I am currently 1/5th of the rock-n-roll band Igor Spectre, I live in the heart of Hollywood with my husband and 3 cats, and my favorite movie is “Hot Fuzz.” Edgar Wright is a genius but my favorite director of all-time turns out to be Mike Nichols.
