Being involved in post production and film laboratories for over 25 years, I have worked with Twentieth Century Fox, Universal, Deluxe Laboratory, MGM Laboratory, and Alpha Cine Laboratory. At Deluxe Laboratory, I first worked as a Captive Negative Cutter and Assembler, then from 5/81 to12/91, as their Supervising Negative Cutter. I began working as an independent cutter in 1990, continuing to the present. I have worked with cutters such as Bob Hart /Sunrise Films, Terresa Repola Mohammed, Gary Burritt /Kona Cutting, and Donna Bassett.
