As a dedicated, resourceful journalism graduate with considerable experience in providing a variety of multimedia content, I am looking for a position within broadcasting to further expand my ability and passion for reporting on news and sport. I built the foundations of my career writing for media outlets, websites and publications, learning different facets of covering breaking news and sporting events. My time at university has allowed me to expand into other areas, including creating content for local, national and international outlets, interviewing, live event coverage and website editorial duties. I believe that these skills, coupled with my strong work ethic and unparalleled dedication to my duties, will provide immediate value within the industry.
Experience in audio and video broadcasting and producing, including presenting daily news and sport bulletins, tailored interview packages and OBs, show planning and structuring using RCS Zetta, and voice tracking.

From blogging and opinion pieces prior to UWS, progressing to interviews, breaking news, feature pieces and live event coverage across a wide variety of news and sport.
Familiar with a wide variety of multimedia software, including Final Cut Pro, QuarkXPress, DaVinci Resolve, Adobe software, WordPress and Burli, as well as all major operating systems, iOS and Android applications.
