How did you get into radio?

I started DJ’in in Neyland Yourh Club at 12 yrs old, and had my own mobile disco, but growing up listening to Atlantic 252, I knew I wanted to be on the radio! Fast forward a few (quite a few!) years to 2004 and a certain local radio station was advertising for new team members for the launch of a new station, I made a demo, sent it in, had an interview then a few “auditions” and I was offered a daily show on the new station as well as Saturday breakfast on the existing station. This led to me working on 5 radio stations across south wales!

After a short break from radio I finally gave in to Toby’s nagging and agreed to join PWR!
