    In my final year at Nova I produced the weekday breakfast show (Hughesy, Kate & Dave), helping to make it the number one FM show in Melbourne. This involved managing the station’s highest profile talent, sourcing content, producing segments, organizing interviews and ensuring that breakfast content permeated all aspects of the station.
