Since then, I've been working as freelancer: - Freelance Researcher at The Listening Post, Al Jazeera English media analysis show.

(currenttly) - Freelance Sound engineer at Monocle 24, where my main tasks involve recording and editing audio, mixing packages, running pre-recorded and live music hours, as well as outputting live shows at the station. (currently) - Intern at CNN's Features, working as an assistant producer. Main tasks involved assisting producers with research and logistics in preparation for tasks, as well as pitching ideas for features.
