My career in Entertainment began while I was at school as I was the youngest newsreader to join Radio Tyneside (Hospital Radio) I was given his own show which involved playing the patients requests and interviewing celebrities from television and film. One of my most famous interviews was an exclusive with Desmond Llewelyn about his life as Q in the James Bond films. I was one of the last people to interview him before he died and the interview is still used today when people talk about his life.

 I also worked as a P.A. on BBC Radio Cleveland in charge of answering phones booking guests and making sure the show ran as smoothly as possible.

After Leaving School I studied at Newcastle Performing Arts in which Ant and Dec were in the year above me.

 I also studied Media Performance and Production at Salford University. While studying I found my self travelling down to London and helping out on Blue Peter and Smart. While working as a runner for a live CBBC event called the Big Bash at the N.E.C. in Birmingham, a twist of fate led to me hosting The Warm Up show. After surprising everyone I was asked to host 5 shows a day

 

After Graduating I worked behind the scenes at Granada Television. ‘Soap Fever’ Granada Television as a Contract as a runner. Responsibilities include recording and logging material off-air to be used for weekly transmissions. Booking Celebrities for outside broadcasts. Writing reviews for the soaps. And helping out around the office.. It wasn’t long till I had worked my way up to a Researcher for Lifestyle channel, Granada Breeze. I have gained experience on studio pre-recorded programmes and on location. Duties performed include booking and briefing guests, following leads and researching for programme items. I directed VTs on location and followed them through to the editing process

After leaving Granada I joined a Boy band singing and dancing all over the country this was an amazing opportunity for me to use all my talents.

After going as far as I thought I could go with the band I made the difficult decision to leave. Soon after leaving I was selected to become a world famous Red Coat at Butlins in Skegness.

After one season I left Butlins and put all my new found skills into becoming a light entertainment host on T.S.S. The Topaz, cruising and entertaining around the med.

Since leaving the ship I have worked in Tenerife and Salou entertaining children and adults of all ages as a Thomson Super Family Entertainers.

But after a successful run playing Dick Whittington in Panto (Panto Company) at Christmas. I made the life changing decision to relocate to London to concentrate on my Presenting and acting career.

Since moving to London things have gone a bit mad I have been working in the crazy world of television Yoo Play, Cash House, Avago Balls, The Quiz Channel and QVC.

 

When I'm not on TV I host high profile events all over the world for Nintendo, Muller, EDF, Mc Cain, EA Games, The Mall and In December 2008-2009 I will be hosting a Moulin Rough New Year show in Dubai.

 

I have had experience in live studio, open talkback, autocue, OB & location shoots (pieces to camera with and without autocue) phone-ins and competitions.

 

I am also popping up in loads of TV shows films and adverts. So watch this space.
