Dan’s experience as a journalist and broadcaster stretches back 20 years and he currently combines his full-time lecturing role and Course Leader for Journalism with a part-time position as a BBC football reporter.

He originally joined the BBC back in 2001, four years after graduating from the ¹û¶³´«Ã½ of Worcester and, after stints as a web producer, radio presenter, football commentator, senior journalist and assistant editor, he became Editor of BBC Sport England in 2010.

Dan couldn’t resist the opportunity to return to his hometown ¹û¶³´«Ã½ in 2016 to share his passion for journalism with the next generations of journalists and his specialist areas are digital, radio & sports journalism.

When he’s not working, Dan loves running, cycling & walking on and around the Malvern Hills where he lives.
