I’m excited to tell everyone that “Suicide Dolls,” a narrative feature I edited last year just won the New Filmmakers Forum Award at the 2010 St. Louis Film Festival. The film was chosen from finalists by a jury which included film critics from the Chicago Reader, the St. Louis Beacon and the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Of the five films chosen as finalists, “Suicide Dolls” had the lowest budget and shortest production and post-production schedule.
Congratulations to everyone who worked on the film, but most especially Keith Shaw, our fearless director. This was one of the smoothest productions I have ever worked on and I’m certain this was thanks to Keith. He went above and beyond the already impossible job of directing and producing a feature film, so that all I had to worry about was cutting the best film possible.

I’m proud to announce that “Don’t Quit Your Daydream,” an independent feature documentary I edited, just won a Special Jury Prize at the 2010 Nashville Film Festival.
The film, directed by Clark Stiles and produced by Entourage’s Adrian Grenier, is the story of why anyone would dedicate their lives to the thankless goal of making music. It’s also a road trip movie, a biography of two lifelong friends and a meditation on art. And frankly, it’s a film I’m pretty proud to have been a part of.
