About Me

I am an enthusiastic, involved individual and I always strive to be outgoing and excited about life. I spent much of my university career getting involved in social committees and team sports, and I still continue to thrive in a bustling social and professional environment in my current position as a media presenter.

I have always been dedicated to the media industry; I studied Media Studies at A-level, and then furthered my education and passion by studying Film Studies and History at Oxford Brookes University where I achieved a BA Honours Dual Award.

After university I undertook various internships with a number of prestigious institutions. I completed a three-week placement with the UK’s largest music tabloid magazine DJ Magazine where I worked on the monthly edition and wrote marketing articles. I then worked with Red Bee Media on the popular television series Being Human which aired on BBC 3. I also worked for Bauer Media in the marketing departments of radio stations Kiss FM, Magic FM and Kerrang radio to promote the up-and-coming release of the blockbuster films Terminator Salvation, P.S. I love you, I love you man and 2012.

I have travelled extensively through Europe and China, and I completed a month-long safari course in South Africa before returning to London where I was offered a position at Tellallmyfriends.

I currently occupy a role as a presenter at london based video commerce company that promotes UK-based experiences and activities such as driving, flying and adrenaline adventures. I pride myself on my enthusiastic and energetic approach to creative thinking which has proven particularly effective in positioning me in the niche market in front of the camera.
