The Job Awards

The Job

A washed-up cyclist gets a job requiring him to bike alone in a concrete room for hours. His stationary bicycle is wired from the rear wheel to the back wall. Jeff demands answers from his coworker, Bruce.

“Where do the wires go?” “Don’t ask questions.”

What’s on the other side of the wall?

Rollin’ With Whoopi

This 40 episode YouTube web-series follows Whoopi Goldberg and her friends as they ride around New York, banter, and share stories.

IN A WORD

New York–based video editor and filmmaker.

Since graduating from NYU Tisch School of the Arts, I’ve been cutting short films, commercials, and branded content—and somehow found my way into journalism. Through editing, I’ve learned that I enjoy helping other people tell their stories the most.

I’m currently cutting short documentaries for CNN’s Digital Platforms, working closely with journalists to shape their script, tone, and story. I’ve covered a range of topics, from water scarcity for Native American communities to the struggles of incarcerated mothers.

I’ve edited over 200 fashion and beauty videos for Vogue, in addition to working with Michael Kors, Fendi, Converse, and others. I’ve cut shorts and commercials with the likes of Architectural Digest and Reese’s, as well as Discovery, where I led editing teams and created the visual styles for two digital limited series.

From 2013 to 2016, I worked with Whoopi Goldberg to produce and edit her web series, Rollin’ with Whoopi. My own narrative short “The Job” premiered at the Academy Award–qualifying 2016 HollyShorts Film Festival.

I love collaborating with independent filmmakers.

I look to bring a new perspective to everything I work on as an editor, accentuating the story and elevating each piece’s unique visual voice.

My favorite video game (this year) is Disco Elysium. My favorite book is Slaughterhouse-Five.

My favorite sport is dog-spotting. I can’t do traditional sports to save my life.
