Presenter/Producer

At age 6 I was gifted an Atari 10-in-1 TV Games Plug & Play Joystick from my Dad, and needless to say the 1980 game Adventure changed my life. Every piece of pocket money went towards consoles, games and an incredibly stylish pink PS2 Lisa Simpson controller that I still think about to this day.
As a young teen I also found a love of acting that spiralled into me being an extra on films like St Trinians 1 & 2 and The Dark Knight (thanks Christopher Nolan, I purchased a Gears Of War Xbox 360 with that paycheck!). I also found a love of crafting Cosplays at this time, which has stuck with me ever since.
I originally joined the team as a Social Video Editor across GamesRadar+ and PC Gamer, creating short form content and lending my voice to daily videos. GR+ gave me the opportunity to interview at the Golden Joystick Awards, BAFTA Game Awards and talk to some of my biggest inspirations, and now you can find me full time on all GamesRadar+ video platforms as a Presenter and Producer. I am everything 14 year old me dreamed of being… except I’m not married to Farkas from Skyrim. Maybe one day…
