  1. Hey Lily, hope you are well.

    I just come across your post on Twitter, regarding the position of working alongside you and was very interested, as it is in the direction I aim to continue my career!

    I’m a conscious creative, whose hobbies include shooting (specialising in 35mm film) and styling freelance (specialising in film) – whereby sometimes I’d pull from PRs and brands to compliment my work. I thrive from surrounding myself with those as passionate as myself, to complete tasks to great standard or not at all.

    Previously I was a junior booker at Named modelling agency – where I’d scout for models to join the agency and book them for fashion/TV extra work, which was stressful yet rewarding once I saw growth within them, which is my favourite thing to see in others ‘growth’.

    I have a background of Creative Media Production, which I studied at The BRIT School and graduated in 2015, covering PR marketing; fashion photography; radio/TV broadcasting; interactive media; creative writing. I went onto studying broadcast journalism and radio at Media City UK Salford University, studying TV and radio alongside music management.

    I took a year out so that i can focus more on what I wanted to do, which was be involved in radio stations and events. Westside FM took me on a few years ago, assisting on the Sunday show where I’d handle the social media platforms whilst the show was live. I also did some drop-in sessions at Radar Radio, which was super insightful and confirmation that it was the environment I wanted to be surrounded by!

    HipHop is my favourite genre, which I get to express when I assist coordination at the HipHop 90s – Now event at The Grand, which gets hectic and requires organisation but is always worth it in the end! I

    As I am freelance now, it allows me time to dedicate to such role that I believe would help me grow – whilst contributing fresh ideas to help you grow too, I look forward to hearing back from you.

    Thank you for your time.

    Regards
    Jordan Katende
