Born and raised in Appalachia, Georgia has always been a storyteller at heart.  She discovered her love of documentary film editing with Matt Lenski's short Meaning of Robots, which premiered at Sundance, screened at MoMA's New Directors/New Films, and shaped her decade-long career in docustyle commercials.  As a graduate of the College of William and Mary with a degree in English Literature, Georgia’s strength as an editor comes from her background as a writer.  She is accustomed to telling succinct stories on tight deadlines.  

Georgia's first feature documentary, Underplayed, edited and co-written with director Stacey Lee, premiered at Toronto International Film Festival in September 2020.  She edited the Disney Original Documentary Madu, directed by Oscar-nominee Matt Ogens and Joel 'Kachi Benson, which was nominated for Best TV Feature Documentary at the 40th Annual International Documentary Association Awards in December 2024.  Other recent work includes Netflix's Untold: Hope Solo Vs. U.S. Soccer directed by Nina Meredith and Dirty Pop: The Boy Band Scam directed by David Terry Fine, which debuted on Netflix at #1.  She is currently working on a true crime series executive produced by Erin Lee Carr.

An ex-New Yorker, Georgia is located in Los Angeles, but can work for you anywhere.  She enjoys black coffee, estate sales, and Murder, She Wrote marathons.
