About me

Hi I'm the Studio Manager for the Source FM. I previously edited Carrick Roads and was a part of the Idle Blabberers radio show on The Source but I'm excited to be the new Studio Manager here at the brilliant Source FM. My role will involve the technical aspects of keeping the Source on air and providing support and training to the volunteers and presenters who make this radio station what it is. If you would like any support in areas involving using the software, mixing desk, microphones, sound recording, editing, etc please feel free to contact me.
