Radio: Station Manager

You guys know the dealll. I've been part of this society for the past two years, and its shaped my experience at uni. I've hosted a weekly radio show (RIP Umami Raveclart), spun at Modulate, spun randomly in Vienna and again in the Alps and (tried) to keep Kiran's design incentive alive for our beloved Modulate! It's been fun and chaotic and full of amazing characters. This society has given myself and others a platform to express their love for music and yapping, and the community we've built around that is unmatched. I'm here to keep that fire burnin for the next generation of radio and grow the community even more!

Agenda-wise, I'm keen to improve the support available for people trying to hop on the decks or behind the mic, whatever their experience levels, and to host more events at Union and around London. I'd love to get more girls involved as DJs too! It's important to me that Radio continues to be a welcoming and inclusive space - my journey as a Radio simp started on a random Wednesday night in 2nd year, when I rocked up to a social by myself and didn't really know what to expect. I hope that we can encourage more people to do the same in the coming years.

Also, I will make sure the mixer is not in a constant state of disrepair.
