Having finished my undergraduate degree in English Literature at Newcastle University (and after getting a sufficient amount of travelling out of my system), I returned to London to complete my MA in Broadcast Journalism at City, University of London. During this time I interviewed David Lammy, Sir Vince Cable and Rory Stewart about Brexit on my many spontaneous visits to College Green.

Alongside my studies, I worked as an Assistant Producer at LBC, mostly on programmes with Andrew Castle, Maajid Nawaz, Iain Dale, Eddie Mair, Nigel Farage and David Lammy.

I moved to Glasgow in the summer of 2019 to BBC Scotland. I work on the Mornings, with Kaye Adams and Stephen Jardine programme where I assist with content production as a Researcher and Producer. I do regular voiceovers for the show and have participated in live on-air discussions.

I also work as a Broadcast Journalist for the flagship breakfast programme Good Morning Scotland, the political podcast 'Podlitical' and BBC News Online. After shifting as a Journalism Researcher on the TV News programme, The Nine, I began work as a The Nine's freelance Digital Journalist. Alongside these programmes, I am a regular Researcher for BBC Question Time and Debate Night, having previously worked as a Researcher on Debate Night Extra and The Afternoon Show.

I have a particularly strong interest in politics, women's issues and LGBTQ+ stories, with bylines in BBC News Online, The Guardian and The Focus.
