If you asked me to describe what I do in one word, I’d say “audio.” But if you asked me to describe it in one sentence, you might be there a while.
My work stretches across live radio, voiceovers, DJ sets, and podcast production. Each one feels different — but they all come back to the same foundation: connecting with people through sound.
Radio is fast and reactive. On the Breakfast Show, I’m live every weekday morning. The show has to flow naturally, respond to what’s happening in the world, and keep people engaged as they wake up, get ready, and start their day. It’s about energy, pace, and knowing how to communicate in short bursts.
Voiceover work, on the other hand, is precise. Every word matters. Whether it’s a commercial, a documentary, or a corporate narration, I have to hit the right tone for the project. There’s no audience in front of me, but I still have to think about who’s listening and how to connect with them.
Podcasting sits somewhere in between. It’s generally not live, but it has a rhythm. Producing a podcast means thinking about structure, flow, and how to hold a listener’s attention for longer. It’s about memorising each client’s podcast to ensure the correct flow and branding inserts in the right places and crucially to ensure each podcast client gets their audio processed the same as it was in their previous episodes so each episode has it’s signature sound.
Switching between these different roles isn’t always easy. Some days I go from a high-energy breakfast show straight into a focused VO session, then later into editing a podcast episode. But that variety is what keeps me sharp. It forces me to adapt and reminds me that every format has its own strengths.
At the heart of it all is sound. The power of a voice, the emotion in a track, the way music and words can work together to create an atmosphere or tell a story. That’s what excites me.
Finding the flow between all these projects isn’t just about time management. It’s about remembering why I started doing this in the first place: to make people feel something when they listen.
