Hi, I'm the sports news editor for all our interactive services, which means I oversee the coverage we provide on demand in text and pictures, video and audio.
At the moment, that means my day-to-day focus is on our , and TV text services (Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔi and Ceefax), and also ensuring they enrich and complement our live output on TV and radio, primarily News 24 and Radio Five Live.
We have a team of talented editors, journalists and producers who deliver that distinctive and in-depth digest of the sporting agenda, and who work tirelessly to keep everything you see, hear and read on those services as up to date as possible.
So away from the output, my role is also partly about looking longer-term and adapting our approach over time to new technology and the digital age right across all our coverage. That's because our aim is to give you sports news whenever, wherever and however you want it.
Having worked on and eventually edited the newspaper while at university, I joined the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ full-time when I came back to London in 1999.
Football and cricket are the sports I follow most - and in terms of playing, tend to struggle through Sunday league seasons, but fare a bit better on the ski slopes.
And despite being a Londoner, was won over to as a young kid by the great side of the mid-80s, and continue to cling to the hope David Moyes and his boys are about to bring the glory days back to Goodison...
