Jamie Burnett
Jamie started his journalism career as a newspaper finance reporter, but an interest in broadcasting led him to study at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts.
It wasn't long before Jamie landed a job with ABC rural, filing reports for The Country Hour and presenting The South West Rural Report.
In 2009, he left WA for Sydney where he worked as a commercial radio reporter covering state politics, daily news and sport.
He soon returned to the ABC, presenting national Mornings on News Radio.
In 2013, Jamie returned home to Perth to take up a position as a reporter for WA Mornings on ABC Radio Perth.
Since then, Jamie has produced and presented every programme on the station.
The WA Media Award winner loves life in Perth where he indulges his passion for sport, live music, good food and friends.
But his favourite time is at the beach, with his wife Nat and their bulldog Hank.
