An editor is like a barber. We're kind of strange, we have lots of old magazines and children are afraid of us.
Wait. No. I'll start again.
An editor is like a barber. We assess what is plopped down in front of us, we trim away the messy excess and then we craft what remains into what works best. Likewise, we need to have an eye for detail to ensure the customer likes what he/she sees at the end of the process. We also have to have a penchant for
precision, as above all, both are a craft that is not only judged by what the client
is ultimately given, but it is also weighted against the output of our peers.

With over a decade in the industry,
I guess you can say I've cut lots of hair.
I have worked on everything from nationally and internationally aired documentaries, to reality shows, to independent films, to commercials, to corporate videos, to museum exhibits and everything in between. My work has garnered me multiple Emmy Awards, Telly Awards, Addy Awards, Aurora Awards and many others that I have forgetten over time. This recognition from my peers is indeed humbling, but I work hard and I take pride in what I do... so if some shiny statues are given to me as tokens for all of my efforts I'm certainly not going to turn them away.
I am proficient with many versions of Final Cut, Avid, Adobe Premiere Pro, Media 100 (if you remember that, you're also an old-schooler), After Effects, Photoshop and really anything that I am forced to figure out on a whim. It goes with the job. I have a strong desire to consistantly push myself to do better without letting it consume me and I have an easygoing nature which enables me to adapt, work well on a team and to go with the flow.
Okay, the barber analogy doesn't hold up once I go into detail like that, but I do also give out lollipops long past their best buy date so they're all gummy and tacky and stuff.
So there's that.
