Started at York in October 2009 and made first foray into YSTV appearing on Your Answer's Rubbish in summer 2010 after being egged on by Vivan Jayant. After moving into 84 Thief Lane for second year, the draw became stronger and dabbling was undertaken in Platform as well as Woodstock 2011.

Eventually successfully auditioned to anchor the ill-fated Newsrind, presenting alongside Michael Miller and Greg Ebdon. Particular notority gained after following the script when asked to chew the corner of it, then filmed eating the entire thing for use in the closing credits. Footage of which is now lost in the sands of time after the great server crash of Summer 2011.

Wrote and starred in the first episode of sketch show People Are Strange. After Executive Producer Marie Mills was struck down by tonsillitis, ended up single-handedly organising and undertaking auditions, whilst sorting filming schedules over five days. Entirety of filming was then completed over one weekend with directing and camera assistance from Vivan Jayant.

Elected Deputy Station Director in Summer 2012
