With over thirty years of music editing experience, her credits range from "Northern Exposure" and "The Muppets Christmas Carol", to "The Kill Point", "The Following", and ABC’s hit comedy, "The Middle". In her downtime, you’ll find her curled up with a cup of tea, her cats, and a great book in Tarzana, California.
