AWARDS AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
I have hosted every type of radio show to an audience of up to 100,000 people in one of Britain’s biggest
cities. I have vast experience in both live and voice tracked shows and have mastered the art of voice
tracking to a point where I can produce a three hour show in around twenty minutes. I have daily
access to industry standard studios with full access to PSquared Myriad play out software.
Other accomplishments in my career include anchoring Switch Radio’s election night coverage in 2015 in
which we were the only non BBC station in Birmingham to be on air with continuous coverage for
thirteen hours. I also in 2015 reached the semi finals of The People's Pundit for TalkSport. I currently
host The Saturday Scoreboard which provides live commentary of Non League Football across
Birmingham. In 2016 I won the gold award for male presenter of the year at the inaugural Community
Radio Awards!
