About me

With over 20 years in the edit suite, I am a Senior Editor and the Owner/Director of The Sequence Post Production, a facility dedicated to world-class post-production services in South Africa.

My passion lies in the art of visual storytelling, and I've had the privilege of editing some of the most critically acclaimed and commercially successful projects in recent South African cinema. I am incredibly proud to have served as the editor on "The Fragile King," winner of five SAFTAs, including the coveted Best Feature Film award in 2024.

Throughout my career, I've worked on projects that push creative boundaries. This includes editing "Old Righteous Blues," South Africa's official submission for the 97th Academy Awards, which also earned me a Best Editing nomination at the Romford Film Festival. I am also a SAFTA-nominated editor for my work on the feature film "POU."

My expertise spans the full post-production pipeline, from managing workflows for major series like Netflix's "Kings of Jo'burg" to shaping award-winning short films like the SAFTA-winning "Fathersday."
