About

I'm a multi award-winning executive podcast producer with Fresh Air, and a freelance presenter, author and science journalist. Combining a Physics Masters with a background in entertainment radio, I have tried astronaut training, race car driving and making fireworks in a mission to show people that science isn’t boring. This has led to winning a Webby, two Lovies and two corporate content awards, writing two books, and being named as "one to watch" in the Radio Academy's 30 Under 30, Class of 2022. As an Exec Producer at Fresh Air, I produce a range of creative science podcasts: Call of the Wild for WWF UK; This Is Not A Beauty Podcast hosted by Isabella Rossellini for L'Oreal, co-produced with T-Brand at New York Times Advertising; and a few more for 2025 that I can't talk about (yet!). A proud space nerd, I also host and produce the #1 astronomy podcast in the UK; The Supermassive Podcast for The Royal Astronomical Society, a Boffin Media production. As of 2022, I can say I have written two books. The Year In Space (Wildfire Books) is an exciting and engaging guide to the biggest space stories of 2022. Everyday STEM Space (Kingfisher) shows 9-11 year olds how space science makes its way down to Earth.
