I see my craft as a way of helping each film to find its own voice.

I am a film editor with extensive experience working across fiction, documentary, and artists’ moving image.

My credits include LISTENING ALL NIGHT TO THE RAIN, which represented Britain at the 60th Venice Biennale. This project emerged from a sustained exploration of the world of multiple-screens film installations alongside filmmakers such as John Akomfrah, through works including Vertigo Sea, Arcadia and Four Nocturnes - all exhibited internationally in major museums and galleries.

Other films I have worked on include:

After graduating in Media studies at the Complutense University of Madrid, I completed an MA in Film Editing at the National Film & TV School. During my time at the NFTS, I won a Kodak Student Award two years in a row. Since then I have edited a wide range of projects that have participated in major festivals - including Berlin, Rotterdam, CPH:DOX, Leipizig - and have been broadcast by Channel 4, BBC and The Guardian.

Together with Caterina Monzani I founded the production company MiaFilm and directed the documentary film La Valle dello Jato which won the award for best documentary at the Rome Independent Film Festival.

My wide-ranging interest in images led me to do a Masters in Visual Culture Research at Goldsmiths University. I also collaborate as a guest lecturer at different film schools and universities.

I am fluent in English, Spanish, Italian and French (delf2).
