I have just been offered my first BBC reporter role! For more than seven years I’ve been building a portfolio of stories as a journalist both nationally and internationally to become a BBC reporter. I am thrilled to say I’ll be on air, reporting on @BBCRadioLondon and multi platform stories across the capital, bringing London’s news to you everyday. So excited to return to BBC London and the incredible team. Big boots to fill of my wonderful colleagues @Annareporting and @GregMcX1 - what an honour.🎚️🎙️🕵🏻📽️

Tonight I was asked to present an award for the Student Social Mobility Awards for @UpReach celebrating people paving the way to levelling the playing field across the country for young people from all backgrounds.
