Read MoreI am an innovative researcher, currently working in secondary development in the Science Unit at BBC Studios for a new presenter-led specialist factual format. I am a strong communicator who approaches my work with openness, curiosity, and determination to find the best content, contributors, and locations for each programme. I am adaptable when under pressure, able to prioritise effectively even when juggling multiple stories.
I love chatting with experts, academics, and contributors alike, supporting each person in telling their story in the most compassionate and impactful way. I am particularly skilled in breaking down scientific information, communicating complex ideas in a manner that is relevant and accessible to all. I believe the best ideas come out of collaboration and strive to create a friendly, supportive environment for everyone I come into contact with.
My team tells me I always maintain a deep and thorough knowledge of programme content and that I am a fast learner who picks up new skills quickly. I am known for approaching challenging tasks with positivity, often applying creative problem solving to deliver excellent outcomes, even when others have struggled to make progress.
I am a reflective individual who relishes opportunities for feedback and personal development. I hope to continue my growth in the industry by contributing to bold, diverse content that educates and inspires.
