AMERICAN EXPRESS | FROM PASSION TO PRACTICE
Every success has a unique story behind it. The dreams, the inspirations, aspirations and the support – all play an important role in the personal journey. Every trailblazer can remember their childhood ambitions and eureka moments. They remember tough decisions, have the ability to recognize their strengths and how key relationships helped them break through to the next level.

“If I have learned anything in my 4 decades in the industry, it is this: When you find someone with skills that you truly admire, that you are able to communicate clearly with, that you share a common visual language with, work with them and collaborate with them as much as you can.
Andrew and I have worked together for over 7 years and I would not take on a project without thinking of how he might play a part. Editor, Director, D.P., Andrew is talented in all and approaches each with flair and vision, and perhaps above all, with clarity and calm. As projects become more complex, you need to know that you have a team that is experienced, positive and fearless.
We have worked on so many projects together, from the promo reel for my company Verbatim to a series of profiles of entrepreneurs for American Express and Conde Nast: From Passion to Practice. The series was shot in three locations in the US back to back with tight deadlines and even tighter post production schedules. Andrew worked tirelessly to meet the often intricate editing requirements. Always there, always suggesting great edits and always with a reassuring calm and confidence.”
