Scientist and Presenter
Liz was born in France to a French father and Trinidadian mother. She moved to Dublin at the age of nine and, after qualifying from Trinity College with a Biochemistry degree, decided to take a year out and try her hand at the music business. After being asked to present the IRMA Music Awards for RTE, her career took a very different turn and she has been presenting ever since:-
Liz is best known for presenting popular youth programmes such as Top of the Pops for BBC1, RI:SE for Channel 4 and Brat Camp Unseen (3 series) for E4. However, when filming Wild Trials for RTE 2 years ago, an encounter with the Bengal Tiger in Pench National Park changed Liz’s direction and she decided to return to her science roots. Current projects include presenting a four part science documentary series called Science Friction for RTE, covering topics such as Nuclear Power, Stem Cell research and Obesity. She is now studying for a Masters in Wild Animal Biology and Conservation, so watch this space for Liz’s next on-screen adventures!
