Hello, I’m Christel!

I’m a freelance social-first Associate Creative Director/Senior Creative and Digital Producer with 10+ years of experience in creative social marketing, both agency side and in-house. Clients include BBC Studios (Doctor Who), Sky TV, Netflix, Channel 4, Google, King (Candy Crush), Adobe, Burger King and Greggs.

In addition to my freelance work, I'm a Content Creator and Presenter with 50k+ followers across my platforms, focusing on sci-fi and geek culture. I started making my own video content in 2007, vlogging at comic conventions across the UK. In 2014, I joined the Doctor Who comedy troupe FiveWhoFans, and in 2015, BBC Studios hired me to host Doctor Who: The Fan Show on YouTube, where I presented over 100 pieces of digital content over three years. In 2023, I returned to the Whoniverse to host the Official Doctor Who Podcast on BBC Sounds. In 2024, I signed with United Agents for my presenting and content creation work.

I grew up in foster care and in 2020 created From Care to Where?, a podcast celebrating a selection of incredible care experienced people. I have also facilitated social media workshops for care leavers through the charity Become and had the honour of serving twice on the judging panel for #Voices, a creative writing competition for children in care and care leavers.

I also do occasional writing work and have co-authored two Doctor Who books for BBC Books and have written several features for Doctor Who Magazine.
