Gizmo is a 30 minute technology themed radio programme that I produced for a second year module whilst studying my BA Journalism degree at UoG. I had to create the idea for an audience of over 45's in Gloucestershire. It was pitched to people in industry, and then selected to be made. I produced the show and oversaw a team of 5 other people who helped me. All of the items and ideas in the programme were originally thought of by myself.

This is my undergraduate Final Year Project based on the topic of Male Suicide in Wales. I received a 1st for this piece of work and it was nominated for some awards. I scripted, recorded and edited all of the programme myself and spoke to everyone from Doctors and Counsellors to a family who've been recently bereaved because of suicide.

This is a compilation of myself and colleagues reading parts of my exclusive Airbus Explored series that ran across Sam FM Bristol in December 2018. I was given exclusive behind the scenes access and spent a few days with various departments across Airbus' site in Filton. We split each department i visited into a separate day, and also created online pieces to accompany the on-air content. I wrote all of the online articles, conducted the interviews, edited all of the scripts and audio. Airbus also shared our work on their social channels and internally.
