Seema Pathan is a talented new face, who has already sparked a great deal of interest. Before starting a Sociology degree at Royal Holloway University, Seema embarked on a World Wide Challenge Expedition i Mexico, where she taught English and sport to students. She found the experience most rewarding and by immersing herself in the local lifestyle, she felt it evoked a sense of cultural awareness and humility in her. Since then, Seema has also visited numerous other parts of the world and wants to continue to explore and cultivate her love of travelling and alternative cultures.
Having finished her degree, Seema used her passion and talent for sport, more specifically tennis, to become a qualified PTR Tennis coach. She won the Cannons Tennis Tournament in London and represented Richmond Borough in Tennis, Netball, Table Tennis, Hockey and Athletics. It is this experience and her outstanding and natural presenting skills that have lead her to be chosen as BBC Sportsround's newest correspondent, filming various reports around the country.
Seema is also fanatical about broadcasting and TV presenting, having worked on the production teams at Sky Sports News and MTV soon after finishing university. She then went on to secure presenting roles at The Independent Music Show, BBC Learning Zone, Glam Asia TV, a documentary for Zee TV as well as hosting the catwalk and live events at Zee Carnival and The Franchise Show for The Business Channel. She was a host at the Asian Woman Awards 2008, was a finalist in the Face of Asia 2009, and also modelled for Asian Woman, Asian Bride and various Asian fashion magazines.
With this growing interest and positive feedback, Seema decided it was time to get herself an agent and joined Talent4 Media. She is already regularly presenting for BBC Sportsround, has interviewed Channel 4's The Family for Brit-Asian iMag and is looking forward to a bright and successful future.
