I am a 21-year-old journalist from West Yorkshire with a strong foundation in multimedia journalism and a passion for producing impactful, people-centred reporting. Raised in a hardworking community, I developed a deep respect for resilience, dedication and the importance of giving voice to everyday experiences.
My academic training at Manchester Metropolitan University, combined with professional experience in digital newsrooms and my time with Halifax Town, has strengthened my commitment to authentic storytelling, rigorous research, and ethical journalism. Through this role, I have produced matchday content, interviews and multimedia coverage, developing strong skills in live reporting, audience engagement and fast-paced newsroom environments.
I bring a strong work ethic, adaptability and empathy to every story I tell, with a particular focus on social issues, global development and underrepresented communities. My aim is to create journalism that is honest, meaningful and rooted in real-world impact.
