It was an absolute privilege to be part of a media panel yesterday at the University I fell in love with media at, The University of Manchester. I remember when I was a student there and I attended a similar event, meeting an investigative journalist (I even bought and read his book!)

I made a programme on the project of the ‘World’s largest dam’ earlier this year for the BBC World Service’s #TheInquiry. It’s been announced its going ahead: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Programme link: www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w... #China #Tibet #India #Bangladesh

A bit slow to post this but in transfer news… I’m incredibly excited to say I’ve joined the team at BBC Radio 1, 1Xtra & Asian Network’s Newsbeat as a Senior Journalist Reporter! 📻 I’ve been listening to Newsbeat for decades so it is an absolute privilege to join the team. (1/2)

I just want to take a moment to congratulate two of my former podcast guests for doing incredible things in their careers. Nicholas Mccarthy for his upcoming debut at the BBC Proms this Sunday….

Yesterday I spent the day in Manchester’s city centre interviewing people who have travelled far and wide to see the Gallagher brothers united again. It felt like reporting on a piece of history - all for BBC Radio 5 Live’s Wake Up to Money programme.

I enjoyed talking to Junie Lau for #WakeUpToMoney on BBC 5 Live about how Google’s new AI tool, Flow has given her new opportunities to pursue filmmaking. You can listen here from 47 minutes in: www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... #journalist

Really proud of the impact the work I, Barbara, Liv, and my editor Henry Jones did on getting this piece of original journalism to air, then to front page of BBC News for most of the day, and now onto the BBC newsletter: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... #Journalist #Storyteller

Excited to add that, two of the guests I fixed for BBC Business programmes this week, were featured as highlights in the BBC Business weekly newsletter! 📈

Love it when the guests I book for the BBC Business Unit get picked up elsewhere! I organised Richard Lim to speak to BBC Radio 4’s Today programme yesterday morning and after his excellent interview, his comments are now in this BBC News article 👇 bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…#newsws
