Parkinson graduated from the University of East London’s media and
communications course in 2015. He chose the university as he knew creating
connections in the capital (London) was key to breaking into the media
industry. After honing his presenting skills at youth station Reprezent and
various daytime 1Xtra shows, he became the host of BBC 1Xtra.
