It wasn’t long before Jules began to make more contacts and found more work, eventually becoming a member of the editors guild. He worked his way up the ranks, eventually landing a position as assistant editor with J.J. Abrams editor Maryann Brandon (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0104783/) on Mission Impossible III. Jules and Maryann hit it off and he went on to work with her on some of the biggest and most successful films of the last decade, including Star Trek & Star Trek: Into The Darkness, Super 8 and finally the 7th installment of the Star Wars saga, Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
