Communication Student at The University of South Australia. Pretty much all of my degree has been done long distance. When I started, I was based at the ABC at Kalgoolie, then in Darwin, and now I’m based in Glasgow. I work some of the time at the BBC and then the rest of my time on my study.</p> <p>Studying long distance has it’s challenges but I think what keeps me going is that I love the project and I get great support from my supervisor, Doctor Jackie Cook.</p> <p>What I’m looking at is the way broadcasters and particularly radio presenters construct an on-air identity or a persona. So, it means I get to talk to all of the most interesting presenters about how they do what they do.</p> <p>So, here I am, and I just wanted to say happy birthday, happy thirtieth birthday to the University of South Australia School of Communications. I don’t know how a university blows out candles but I hope you get them all in one go. Cheers.</p> <div class="customFooter"></div> <p>  <p class="smalltext"><a class="print" href="#top">top^</a></p>  <div id="footer">  <h2 class="navigation-header">Footer Navigation</h2> <ul> <li class="footer-nav"><a href="/footer/disclaimer/">Disclaimer</a> | </li> <li class="footer-nav"><a href="/copyright/">Copyright</a> | </li> <li class="footer-nav"><a href="/footer/privacy">Privacy</a> | </li> <li class="footer-nav"> <a href="/footer/accessibility/default.asp">Web accessibility</a> | </li> <li class="footer-nav"> <a href="http://cricos.deewr.gov.au/Institution/InstitutionDetails.aspx?ProviderID=121"> CRICOS Provider no 00121B</a> | </li> <li class="footer-nav"><a href="/footer/contact/">Contact UniSA</a> </ul> <ul> <li class="footer-nav"><a href="/footer/site.asp">Site help</a> | </li> <li class="footer-nav"><a href="/midyear/">Midyear entry</a> | </li> <li class="footer-nav"><a href="/openday/">Open Day</a> | </li> <li class="footer-nav"><a href="/events/">UniSA Events</a> | </li> <li class="footer-nav"><a href="/footer/browsealoud.asp">Read this page</a></li> </ul> <p>Latest content revision:Monday, 7 September 2009 </p>   <p class="ahem"> This site will work and look better in a browser that supports <a href="http://webstandards.org/act/campaign/buc/" title="The Web Standards Project's BROWSER UPGRADE initiative.">web standards</a>, but it is accessible to any browser or Internet device. </p> </div> <script type="text/javascript">var internalip = "38.107.179.217" ;</script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.google-analytics.com/ga.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="/commonfiles/gatag.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="/commonfiles/UniSATracker.js"></script>  </div> </div> </p> </body> </html>
