On Rough Diamond I worked as  assistant editor alongside John Costello, where I gained invaluable experience in the editing process. Under his guidance, I contributed to various aspects of post-production and also cutting promos for upcoming episodes, all the while ensuring the final product met the high standards expected by the BBC.

Set in the beautiful Irish countryside, Rough Diamond follows Aidan Doherty, a young and struggling horse trainer on the brink of selling his family’s stables to a wealthy rival, Charlie Carrick. However, his life takes a dramatic turn when he discovers he has a son and is unexpectedly tasked with training a wild colt. As Aidan attempts to turn his fortunes around, he faces both personal and professional challenges, including the growing tension with his ambitious neighbour and the beautiful but scheming Yolanda Carrick.
