Grace Winpenny
Grace arrived at York in 2011, keen to investigate the social habits of waterfowl and to do a Music degree. Amazingly, it took her until 2013 to become a member of YSTV. Grace had encountered YSTV on numerous occasions around campus and thought it looked like fun so vowed to join and has pretty much lived in the Station since her 3rd year at York. She is currently studying for an MA in Postproduction with Sound Design and still presents/produces content as a well-deserved break.
Through the kind/crazed encouragement of Matt Johnson, Grace decided to give presenting a go and has never looked back. A personal highlight was co-presenting Children in Need 2013 with Matt Judge where she demonstrated her baking prowess.
As of the 2014 FLOPPYs Grace is the proud owner of the 'YSTV Mum' award.
