Fascinating Fact about Me: I was self taught with the keyboard from when I was 5 years old, I learnt to play it by myself and I also learnt how to read the music by myself.
Your Favourite Pass Time / Hobby: I like to play the Keyboard.
Most embarrassing (NOT RUDE!) Moment: I haven’t really had many embarrassin
g moments that I can think of however, one that sticks out is when we were on air about a month after we launched at HFM and I went to close the blind because the sun was on the monitor and I was pulling this cord and it would move so I pulled it a bit harder and I pulled it out the wall… doesn’t sound that embarrassing but when there is about 8 people watching through the window to the studio and a few people high up from HFM that was when it got embarrassing!
What made you want to get a job in the radio industry: Because I just love music and I feel that music is a part of my life, music helps with your different moods throughout your life and there is always 1 song that WILL help you change that mood and with the variance in music we have at HFM, its ideal for an everyday person
