Additional Skills

I am a regular contributor to a locla raio station, for whom I conduct both live and recorded interviews on the subject of the arts.

I am an excellent communicator and am able to adapt my style of communication to suit the individual or audience that I am addressing. I also have a great deal of experience in communicating with people who may have barriers such as learning difficulties or physical disability.

I feel that these experiences have helped me to hone my natural skills and develop a very varied repetoire of vocal and communications styles.
