Rowan de Pomerai

Rowan de Pomerai was/is an active member of YSTV between 2003 and 2007. Having missed the welcome meeting in his first year due to another commitment, he timidly wandered in to the station one day (those who know him now may find this hard to believe) where he met the Station Director, Dave Baker. Being back in the days of paper signup sheets, he was coerced into signing up for Games Disaster there and then. Despite crewing the odd show, Rowan didn't get properly involved with YSTV until he volunteered to edit Best Broadcaster for NaSTA 2004, along with Jonathan Bufton. This was the start of a beautiful friendship, not to mention a string of 4 Best Broadcasters which had Rowan as one of the main editors.

He has held the following officerships:

• Station Director 2004-05
• Studio Manager 2005-06
• Head of Presentation and Treasurer 2006-07

He has been a producer of 2 shows:

• LipSync 2004-06
• Limited Edition (along with Sarah Cheyne), 2006-07

He has been involved with organising some of YSTV's big events:

• YSTV's co-ordinator for NaSTA 2006
• One of the team behind YSTV40
• Also the man behind Big Gay Sunday.

Rowan will be leaving YSTV in the summer of 2007, and in September he will join the illustrious ranks of YSTV alumni who work at the BBC, with a job in Future Media & Technology. He would like to think he will be sadly missed by all, but he is probably mistaken.
