As a content editor, I cover a wide range of musical events and artists with either written features or news or interviews. So on Monday, for example, I'll be setting up for the week ahead. So any feature ideas that will be written that I would like to do, so I'll be planning those. I'll also be planning interviews, so I'll be looking ahead to see which shows that we have coming up on sale. I'll try and find the relevant artists to interview for those events.

I was massively, massively into English, when I was at school. The thing that I found most natural to me was writing in and creativity and coming up with stories or… I did Literature and English language at A-level. So that was always where my talents were or my passion was.

I'm into music as well. I studied Music Technology at college as well. So you don't need to be a music expert, I'm certainly not. I just read music magazines and I always have done. And that's the best kind of experience for music journalism is just read other journalists and read what makes a good interview.

To do this job, you have to be really good at time management. You might have five or six different jobs that might all come in at the same time or you might have this manager who is saying 'can you do this for me this week?' And you have to work out, 'OK do I need to this right away or have I got time to just leave that one until maybe tomorrow or the day after?’

Preparation is very, very important in this job as well. If you're on the way down to interview someone, you really, really want to know what they've been up to. Bands hate being asked the same question all the time. They get sick of it. So if you can find some interesting stuff, and you can get them on your side early by showing that you’ve researched then that really helps get a much, much better interview. I love writing about music every single day. I'm so, so lucky that I can say that that's what my job is – to write and immerse myself in music every day. And that I could not be happier.
