Summary
My experience working for Brisbane's number 1 breakfast show has refined my producing skills and deepened my passion for the radio industry. This phase of my career has given me invaluable insights into the complexities of producing a successful show, highlighting the crucial role of teamwork. Moving to Sydney was a deliberate choice to further my producing career. I am seeking the perfect opportunity to return to commercial radio where I can apply my producing skills to contribute to another top rating show.
