From butterflies to the budget, I’ve covered it all in a tight and effective way. I’m capable of covering any story and thrive on the challenge of bringing worthy stories to the forefront of discussion in an engaging manner.
I always conduct myself in a professional way in and out of the newsroom, keep myself abreast of the world beyond New Zealand and have passions in topics that not everyone does, such as business and politics.
While I’ve succeeded in my time at NZBS, I look forward to putting that practice into meaningful real-world action.
