The entry I made for Best Newcomer at the IRN Awards in 2016.

I was unfortunate not to be nominated in this category, however I was part of the entry that claimed Runner Up in the News Team of the Year < 500,000 for Quidem Midlands Ltd.

Episode 5 of my original 'Voices of Rugby' series I created to celebrate the start of the Rugby World Cup 2015.

The aim of the series was to speak to people from the town of Rugby for whom rugby is more than just a sport.

In this episode, I spoke with Rugby's MP Mark Pawsey.

Part of a mini-documentary I did about a fatal crash in Freasley, near Tamworth in which 3 members of the same family died.

I speak with Angie Walker, the mother of 15 year old Dion Walker-Smith, who died in the crash alongside his cousin Damien and aunt Maggie.

This was broadcast on the one year anniversary of the crash, as part of a special breakfast show featuring Angie. I organised a silent auction through the station which raised £1000 which went towards the costs of Dion's headstone.

In 2015, Wasps Rugby celebrated their first year at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry.

I was given exclusive access to the club's management and players to ask them how the first year in Coventry had been.

I also spoke with lifelong fans of the club about how they felt... one year in.
