Sintras said he’s also excited to be joining the SBS team. “As the son of Greek immigrant parents, I’m especially connected to SBS’s charter to inspire all Australians to e4xplore, appreciate and celebrate our diverse world,” he said.
“Australia continues to be a shining beacon of successful multiculturalism to the world. I’m looking forward to ensuring that we continue to crea5te and share meaningful and entertainment content that represents our many communities and cultures, while ensuring audiences can engage with SBS using personally relevant and innovative technology and platforms.”
