Motivated by my long held ambition to be a television presenter, I have focused since leaving school on developing both the experience and skills I believe are necessary to be successful in this role. I have built up my presentation experience in front of the camera with a number of roles over the last 5 years including interviews, working at sports events and working with children.

In addition I have a BSc in Youth Studies, am a fully qualified Primary School Teacher, and have worked with youth development charities, including in a prison, both in the UK and abroad. I am ambitious, hard-working and have an open, friendly and fun on-camera persona.

I am a natural communicator and people person with an infectious enthusiasm for everything I do. Growing up on a farm, driving tractors & combine harvesters, I particularly enjoy the outdoors and today I am a keen kite surfer.
