Summary

Emerging media presenter with practical experience across radio, television, podcast production, live events and music. Recently completed a Radio, TV & Podcast Production course with Unity Radio, developing hands-on experience in presenting, interviewing, camera operation, audio recording and production. Experience includes presenting at Parklife Festival, hosting a live music event at Band on the Wall, interviewing a DCMS Minister, and working on camera and audio production for a live TEDx event and multiple podcasts. I am also beginning my own radio show with Unity Radio and have been selected to become the face of a young people's campaign with Livity. I have a natural, conversational approach to presenting and enjoy creating an atmosphere where audiences feel included and involved. I am particularly interested in music radio, TV presenting, entertainment, live events and the wider music industry.
