About Sarah

I'm passionate about story and all forms of storytelling. As an editor, I have had the privilege to contribute to award winning projects in a meaningful way.

I've been working in film/tv for over 15 years and am currently branching out into writing and directing as I work towards my MA in Film through the Raindance Postgraduate Degree program.
