Autumn 2012

Joined YSTV at Freshers Fair 2012 after being prodded into it by Liz Pascoe. Followed this up by running for Deputy Technical Director a couple of weeks later - after being prodded into it by Liz.

Has the aim of getting every piece of equipment that ever leaves the station a flight case or carry bag. As of finishing his degree, has managed this with the sound desk and Kenobi.

Spends his spare time studying Physics - and has been known to be refused access to the station by Liz close to deadlines. By third year actually ended up doing more physics in the station than out of it. This was little use, however, as he ended up failing to progress to his fourth year.

  • Deputy Technical Director 2012-13 (November 2012 by-election)
