Prior to study at Bournemouth University back in 2010; Mackay studied Advanced Level 3 Media where she got a taster for the different varieties of the media, including: Marketing; Radio; Graphic Design and Animation; this is where Mackay realised her preferred career path – in the Radio Industry. After studying Level 3 Media, Mackay decided to study at Degree level Radio. Mackay commenced Radio study in 2012 where she learned skills in radio presenting and producing, soon realising her potential to be a Broadcast Journalist, a job that had always appealed to her but had never thought she would gain confidence to do so. Radio at Bournemouth University opened many doors for Mackay, allowing her the opportunity to carry out work experience at two different placements – at “Forest FM”, a small community radio station based in Verwood in Dorset; and a placement at “That’s Solent TV”, a news television channel based in Cosham in Portsmouth.
