''I did a science degree, but didn't really like it, just mixing chemicals in a lab.
As a break, I ended up going to a radio station on Wednesdays, which was my half-day off, and I just got a feel for radio then.
I was answering phones but within about six months they allowed me to go on air and it all started from there''.
It was while she was working on both the Asian and mainstream programmes at BBC Radio Lancashire that she heard that the Asian Network would be taking over the Asian programming there.
