How would you describe your programme?

Breakfast at Coastway’s Saturday Mornings premier breakfast show (if I do say so myself).  The show is full of fantastic music from throughout the ages along with the Guess the Movie songs (3 songs, 3 chances only 1 answer), the UK Official Top 3 and complete and utter randomness and craziness to brighten up your Saturday morning

What made you want to join Coastway Hospital Radio For Brighton?

I love music and love entertaining people, I have previously worked at different hospital radio stations but wanted to run my own program of music I enjoy and I know are popular so I joined Coastway

What do you like best about Coastway?

It is the most friendly place I have ever had the privilege of volunteering.  Everyone is so kind, caring and nice it is like being part of a family

How did you get into presenting?

I’ve been a mobile DJ for a number of years and volunteered as program assistants at various hospital radios giving me an insight into presenting.

Who/what are your biggest influence(s)?

My family are a huge influence on me, my father helps most weeks with my playlists and song choices  and always supports me and my brothers are hugely supportive in everything I do.  I’m also influenced highly by all things space and science which always gets a mention on my show.

What have been your biggest achievements?

I believe life is one big achievements, I succeeded in school, I’m succeeding in life and I have my own show :-)

 Name a key tune that you love or inspired you

Rod Stewart Sailing, it was one of my mums favourite songs and always makes me think of her and smile when I hear it

What do you do when you are not broadcasting?

When I’m not presenting, I love photography and am getting into Astronomy and Astrophotography, spending time with the family, spending time at airshows trying to loose weight (which seems to be going on forever) and studying for my A Levels in Math’s and Physics
