Media Training

Heard: All About Trans – 2023 – present
I facilitate interactions for All About Trans: a project run by Heard. All About Trans brings together media professionals with a network of trans people for informal, off the record interactions intended as a safe learning space to improve trans representation in the mainstream media.

I ran a Guest Workshop on Co-Production and the Ethics of Interviewing for All the Best Radio’s Jesse Cox Audio Fellowship 2025.

I am the Fellows Coordinator for the Multitrack Fellowship 2024 – designing and co-ordinating the training programme and acting as the safeguarding and pastoral point of contact for the fellows. Read more here.

I worked in the same role in 2022, and in 2022 was a member of the Multitrack Training Steering Group.

London Podcast Festival – 2022
I led a session with Arlie Adlington looking at the power dynamics in contributor/producer relationships making documentary audio and how to make these relationships less extractive.

Rise + Shine – 2022
In Feb 2022 I ran a Rise & Shine masterclass on interviewing. Rise & Shine is an amazing platform for people interested in audio stuff, founded by the legend Sarah Myles. There are so many free resources to be found, 10/10 would recommend to a friend.

Down the Rabbit Hole – 2021
Down the Rabbit Hole is an audio storytelling project that I designed, facilitated and produced in collaboration with Women in Prison, The Empathy Museum and National Prison Radio working with three incredible women – Rita, Elizabeth and Angel – who access services at The Beth Centre in Lambeth. This was a project I ran through Boldface. Read more here.

Alphabet Radio’s Intro to Audio Course – 2021

I designed and delivered a 10 week training course for LGBTQ+ people who are interested in getting into audio production and presenting. The course ran from March – May 2021.

The course was free to attend, included one to one mentoring, weekly production training, and weekly ‘Listening Sessions’ in which our trainees had the chance to meet LGBTQ+ audio producers and presenters and listen to a piece of their work. I delivered this course with Kit Callin and Laura Blake.

I ran workshops on interviewing, presenting, remote recording and sound design. I also facilitated the Listening Sessions, which were effectively a series of ‘In Conversations’ with queer audio producers including Ariana Martinez, Alexander Charles Adams, Jacob Edward and Ant Adeane. I really, really enjoyed interviewing people about their audio processes.

Somerset House – 2020

In October 2020, I ran an Interviewing for Podcasts, Radio and Film workshop for Somerset House staff. In November 2020, I ran a workshop on Access to the Audio Industry, Idea Creation and Pitching for 18-25 year olds as part of Somerset House’s Upgrade Yourself series.
