Q:Ìý What has your career involved so far?

I've been working for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Coventry and Warwickshire since August 2008 and am loving every minute of it!

I joined ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Coventry and Warwickshire for my official work placement in June/July 2008 and officially started in the newsroom the following month.Ìý

Q:Ìý What does your job involve?

A:Ìý In the words of Coventry Market the Musical - All kinds of everything! As Coventry and Rugby reporter I interview, report on and source stories from around the patch, usually doing live reports into the breakfast programme or pre-recorded pieces. You'll also hear me reading the news from time to time, and every so often reading sports bulletins too.

Q:Ìý What do you like the most about ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Coventry & Warwickshire?

Q:Ìý Your favourite food?

A: All things chocolate -goes without saying! (and I love Indian food -minus anything too spicy though)

Q:Ìý Your favourite drink?

A:Ìý Ribena - I'm addicted, thank goodness it's not alcoholic! (Am also a big fan of black tea after a study tour trip to Egypt during my degree-get through at least five cups a day)

Q:Ìý Favourite song?

A:Ìý Hmmm this constantly changes - although I love Take My Breath Away by Berlin, When a Man Loves a Woman by Percy Sledge and Kiss Me by Sixpence None The Richer. I love listening to anything by Norah Jones when winding down for the evening.

A:Ìý Haven't watched it yet...

Q:Ìý Give us a fascinating fact about yourself:

A:Ìý I have three z's in my surname, but ironically, people have more problems with my first name - I'm often called Shaun, or Cy-anne and on one particularly embarrassing occasion STAN!!!!
