About

A presenter, musician, and proud Yorkshire man with experience in entertaining audiences both on camera and in person. I am confident and charismatic with a passion for engaging audiences with liveliness and humour across TV, radio, and live events.

With six years at the BBC in public-facing roles, I’ve developed a clear and compelling delivery style with a natural ability to connect with viewers and listeners. I’m experienced in hosting large-scale events, leading discussions, and communicating complex ideas with clarity, warmth, and enthusiasm.

My background in storytelling and current affairs gives me the versatility to move seamlessly between informative, conversational, and high-impact presenting. Driven by a passion for public service broadcasting and a genuine love of communicating with people, I bring energy, credibility, and on-camera confidence to every project.
