We're chatting today with Gemma Hunt, the Children's BAFTA nominated TV presenter, entertainer, and voice-over artist. If you have seen Alpha, you might also recognize her from having co-presented the 2016 Alpha film series (it's pretty incredible, check it out).
Gemma has been working in TV since 2003, and since graduating with her First Class Media Performance degree from The University of Bedfordshire, she has worked with CBBC, "CBeebies," the award-winning pirate game show "Swashbuckle," and has also presented in festivals around the UK (including Big Church Day Out) and hosted a BBC radio show. Gemma has also been involved in theatre productions for youth and children.
Native to Trowbridge, Wiltshire, Gemma proudly wears blue, red, and white (UK). Although her journey into and through the entertainment industry has been filled with life-changing experiences, she tries to always remind herself that she is in fact where she is meant to be. In spite of personal insecurity and doubt, the call on her life has continually been affirmed by God and those around her. Take a listen to our conversation about Gemma's faith and career, BIPOC culture moments, and why painting nails might be the most satisfying hobby she has come across yet!
