Louise currently works for DWTV (Deutsche Welle) hosting their daily live lifestyle magazine show called EUROMAXX. This programme has something for everyone as it covers topics from sport to music and food to art. In the role as a broadcast journalist, Louise loves to be able to delve into current affairs and research a topic fully before going on air live and talking about it. The studios are in Berlin but the show is broadcast internationally. In the UK you can find it on MY Channel - Sky 203.
Having begun her presenting career hosting the FIA European Drag Racing Championships for SkySports and Channel 5, Louise moved on to work in music. A few of the shows she worked on included a music quiz show called “Music Tree” and a classical music based chat show called “Classy”.
Louise has also worked at Festivals around the UK but thinks that there is nowhere better to chat to bands than with a backdrop of London’s skyline. This is the essence of ‘Balcony TV: Music Sessions’. It gives the audience music with a view. The web channel has been running since 2006 and is produced in over 50 cities around the world. For the first time though, it is a feature on television at London Live TV - the Independent’s new channel on Freeview Channel 8, Virgin 159, Sky 117 and Youview 8. Louise is excited to be both co-producing and co-hosting this show and is constantly praying that it won’t rain!
"London is where my heart is, so I'm thrilled that I get to present new music with a view of this city"
