Summary
My work and life experiences have enabled me to develop a range of skills that have helped me become the person I am today.
Media - I see myself as a hard-working and creative individual, who loves every aspect of media work. I have gained lots of experience in recent years during my time at University whether that be commentating on a variety of sports, filming projects, being on-screen or working behind the scenes with audio. During this time I have also gained valuable experience of editing video/audio packages along side long form content such as documentaries. As well as video and audio content, I have developed my written work in recent years through writing live match updates and match reports for Port Vale FC and the Manchester FA. I have a real desire to work in this industry and feel my skill set can add value to any team.
Personal - I love watching and taking part in sports, with a special interest in football. I love listening to music and spending time with my family and friends. I enjoy travelling to new places, with my most recent trip visiting Milan to watch a football game at the San Siro.
I would welcome an opportunity to expand on any information contained in this CV.
