Dan Maher

Daniel Maher joined YSTV during the 2016-17 Fresher's Fair. Working towards a career as a Director, Writer or stay at home father of a child who'll pay for the sweet Jag he always wanted, Dan studies Film and Television at York from 2016-19. He is a member of Goodricke (the best) college.

YSTV was one of the first societies that he signed up for and the one that he engaged with most heavily. During the first By-Elections (held to fill out committee and officer positions lacking at the beginning of that year) Dan was unanimously voted in as YSTV treasurer (definitely not because he was the only one who ran for it). He was able to retain this position during the AGM and elections of Summer 2017, despite remarkable opposition in the form of a bottle of Vodka and a series of Tequila shots.

Dan's role in the society is largely administrative; updating the financial spreadsheet, signing off on claim forms, communicating with YUSU and drinking.

Dan is currently pushing for a more ordered financial process; one with tighter communication to create a more involved and streamlined process.

He's also partial to the odd drink.

It was here that Dan downed the pint (a feet never repeated in all of human history) and became known as 'Down-it Dan'. Since then Dan has revealed a fondness for drinking, having a quarter of a bottle of vodka at the 2017 AGM. Perhaps the most notorious alcohol soaked incident concerning Dan was during the infamous
