Bio
Jill is a Brooklyn-based video editor with a specialty in comedy projects.
She recently produced her first show at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, “Mr. Cardboard” featuring Clown graduates from Phillipe Gaullier. In addition to raising $12,000 on Seed&Spark, she ran tech for the full 26-show run and made a documentary about the experience..
With experience as a post-production assistant on the film Praise This (2023), managing VFX creatives and version control for “Moon” (2023), and intern experience from computer programming to casting, she hopes to continue her career as an editor in scripted comedy.
She graduated from the University Of Georgia in May 2024 with a major in Entertainment Media Studies and a minor in Ethics and Law.
Behind editing her second love is improvising. After four years of weekly shows with Improv Athens, she performs with BigDog in the Brooklyn improv scene. In her free time she reads high fantasy and keeps a wholesome scrapbooking journal.
