My first book, Evil Doesn't Live Here, was published in 2001. I am still researching and writing in the same vein: around the intersection between war and art, pain and beauty. My next book planned, however, will move away from these themes. I am currently developing a project featuring the early life of the poet Dylan Thomas.

See My Books for more information, and see below for new projects completed and in progress.

I went to film and photography school in London (1982-85). I graduated with a BA (Hons) degree in these subjects, specialising in film.

Originally a film editor (BBC and freelance), in the early 2000s I started to evolve as a multidisciplinary filmmaker. In this capacity I defined myself as the producer, photographer, editor and sound designer of three feature films that together won 15 prizes around the world. The first of the three films, The Colour of Olives, is still screened frequently and is streaming on various platforms worldwide.

I have been editing and sound-designing films since the 1980s—first on celluloid and then digitally since the early 2000s. For many years, I worked in London freelance at the BBC and for Channel 4 TV documentaries.

Today I am freelance and mainly work in Adobe Premiere Pro and Adobe Audition, but I also have working knowledge of Avid, Final Cut X, Lightworks, and Protools.

Apart from designing my own books, I also design books for other authors.

The first book I designed (in Spanish) was Cine Paso a Paso (2010, 2020), by Carolina Rivas. It was updated in 2020.

I recently completed a five-volume illustrated biography (in German) of the Strauss family, and a new anthology of seven plays (in English) by Anton Chekhov. 

I am currently designing Jess Richards latest book, Threads and Distortions.

I started teaching film editing in Mexico in 2006. I worked in Mexico City and Real del Monte (Hidalgo).

After moving to Barcelona in 2012, I became the head of film editing at La Casa del Cine. I stayed in this position until 2021. Between 2021 and 2023 I taught at ECCIT in Lerida, Spain.

I now give private film editing classes when requested, and I have written a book about film/video editing. It will be edited and published in the next couple of years.
