Precision, compassion, and a strong understanding of human nature are paramount in my work, for as the adage goes, 'God is in the details.' I am deeply passionate about my craft, and this ardour resonates throughout my professional endeavours.
My profound affection for the medium empowers me to intuitively and seamlessly translate the vision residing within the hearts and minds of my directors onto the canvas of the screen. I take great pride in my role as an astute listener, yet I also possess the discernment to offer my insights judiciously.
I often liken the role of an editor to that of a doctor. In this analogy, a TV show or film becomes the director's metaphorical 'baby,' and, much like a doctor, I provide guidance and support, enabling the director to deliver his 'baby' in the best possible way.
