I’m a proactive, self-starting journalist who is confident both in-front and behind the microphone. My experience in radio and training in television production allows me to not only produce high quality audio packages and interviews but also to self-shoot visual content to help boost reach in a constantly evolving digital landscape. Prior to joining the BBC I’ve had a very successful career in Student and Community Radio where I produced and presented a wide variety of both speech and music programmes. I made the biggest impact as Station Manager at Surf Radio where I led a brand new radio station to 8 award wins in it’s second year of broadcasting during the Covid-19 lockdown.
