She re-launched ITV’s long running CD:UK, where she gave Myleene Klass one of her first presenting roles, and has talent-produced at a host of music festivals.
She has produced and directed movie premiere specials for ITV 1, and Series Produced for both MTV, and the E! Entertainment Network. She has worked with a vast array of today’s top radio and television presenting talent including Davina McCall, Mark Radcliffe, Richard Allinson, Tommy Vance, Kate Thornton, Alex Zane, Jenni Falconer, Cat Deeley, Lauren Laverne and Vernon Kay.
