Adam was born and raised in Aurora, Colorado . He attended Lewis and Clark College in Portland, Oregon where he received a BA in Psychology. It was in college that he discovered an early interest in editing. On a whim, he took an elective documentary course and soon after found himself editing in a dark room in the middle of the night consumed by the process.
Soon after, Adam moved to Los Angeles to attend film school at Loyola Marymount University. Upon receiving his MFA in Film Production, he began working in the early days of internet video, shooting some of the first web series including Clark and Michael, (Michael Cera and Clark Duke) and Wainy Days (David Wain). Missing the quiet creativity of the cutting room however, he found his way back to editorial first as a Post PA on Pride and Glory (Newline Cinema) and eventually working as an assistant editor on such shows as The Mindy Project (NBC), The League (FX), and Awkward (MTV).
Today, Adam works as a picture editor for all the major streamers and studios. Some of his notable credits include Minx (Starz), Generation (HBO Max), Kidding (Showtime), You’re the Worst (FX), Casual (Hulu), On My Block (Netflix), and Workaholics (Comedy Central).
Adam currently lives in Los Angeles with his wife and kids.
