About
About Me:
I am a 21 year-old entry level freelancer looking to get into the creative side of media. I have had experience in both radio and television studios at college. During this time, I was a producer on The Kieran Poole Show which won Gold at the 2017 community Radio Awards for Best Entertainment Show. Since then, I have presented, produced and tech-opd many shows and was station manager for a while.
I have worked on many projects in the television studio too: a live session show, chat show and a drama production - during these I was working sound, camera and as a vision mixer.
After that I joined local station Maritime Radio where I have a weekly show every Sunday afternoon.
Outside of media I am an avid fan of Welling United Football Club who play at level 6 of English football, often working on the tannoy or editing videos such as their Goal of the Season montage. I am also a DJ and run my own disco company with all my own equipment.
I have a full UK Driving License and have access to a car.
