About me

I am currently finishing up a masters degree in International Sports Journalism. I have experience covering NFL UK London games, in which I interviewed many NFL athletes and coaches. This includes but is not limited to Luke Kuechley, Khalil Mack, John Gruden, Chase Daniel, Kyle Allen, Ron Rivera, etc. I have also interviewed ex Arsenal and Liverpool player Michael Thomas on racism in football and the current Arsenal side's woes. I have covered London charity "The Black Prince Trust" who offers free sport programming and is a hub for grassroots basketball in the city. I have extensive coverage of Championship side Brentford FC, who are currently in the running for a playoff spot and a shot at the Premier League. I was there for their FA cup clash with mighty Leicester City and press conference with Brenden Rodgers. I have produced a podcast on the moment Kawhi Leonard became a Toronto legend, interviewing the photographer that captured his iconic buzzer beater. I am trained in the Adobe Suite, and am comfortable editing video and audio in Premiere Pro. I also freelanced for a mental health podcast 'My Mind Chatter', producing a small series of mental health podcasts aimed at helping people struggling with the COVID lockdown. I am contributing to ConnectSport, a website dedicated to covering the sport charities and CIC's across the UK. I am determined to break into the broadcast industry.
