Shining a light on the next Generation Talent in the broadcast media industry... last episode of this series!
Dee Hassan was someone I had interviewed for a Runner role whilst I was working at Icon Films. She was successful during the interview process and started her new position in February this year.
I was really impressed by Dee when we first met - she has this quiet determination about her and I just know that whatever else she goes on to do in future, she will be absolutely brilliant at it!
Her 'Keeping It Reals' led to a truly wonderful conversation with a young woman who is insightful beyond her years and that's because of her experiences as a Somali woman growing up in Sweden, having moved to the UK when she was 14 years old.
