About

Post-production professional with over fifteen years of experience in quality control, technical delivery, and digital cinema workflows. Trained at the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar, the Łódź Film School, and the National Film & Television School. I specialise in QC and media management across the full post-production pipeline — from on-set ingest and dailies through to DCI-compliant delivery, conform, and archiving. I'm experienced with Avid Media Composer, DaVinci Resolve, Baselight, and Premiere Pro, and have delivered content to major studio and distributor standards including: DCP, IMF, AS-11, and ProRes across UHD, 4K, 2K, and HD formats. I've supported productions for Apple TV, and worked across broadcast television, documentary, short film, and branded content — both independently and within collaborative post-production teams. I'm comfortable in high-pressure, deadline-driven environments and experienced in shared storage workflows on Avid NEXIS. I'm also experienced in AV production and event support contexts, with strong technical troubleshooting skills and the ability to operate across multiple locations and workflows simultaneously. Trilingual in English, German, and Polish. Currently based in London and open to opportunities in the UK, Germany, and German-speaking Switzerland.
