Personal Statement
From a young age I have listened to radio and podcasts in a variety of
genres. This is what led me to gain a passion to have career in radio. I
have managed to gain some experience in radio and want to expand on
that. During that experience I have worked on a live show in two different
job roles. Currently studying Live Radio and Commercial production for
radio at university.
