Biographies

Jessica Redler - President In her third year and final year at TVMcGill, Jessica Redler will be leading the pack as the TVM President. She’s armed and full of experience to take on the demanding tasks required for the position. Nothing could possibly go wrong with this year’s administration being led by one who possesses the deadly managerial skills of a BCom student, being last year’s Arts Producer and after having completed an internship at Universal Records. Or could it? Let’s wait and find out. One thing’s for sure though, she’ll make sure you know what’s going on with TVMcGill, and that you hear about it a lot on campus this year.

Tim Reyes - Executive Producer Don’t let his short stature, and mild demeanor fool you. Tim Reyes is running the show this year with some great ideas. This insomniac, workaholic will ensure that you see more of your favourite shows like Cooking While Drunk and Between the Beats, while adding new ones to the roster so that TVM caters to all the different students at McGill. He likes to be inclusive. If you have ideas on what you want to see on TVMcGill, then he’s the guy to talk to. Simply go to the TVMcGill Office and you’ll find him in his hobbit hole at the back.

Rebecca Gallogly - VP Internal Rebecca Gallogly is a second year at McGill and is thrilled to be VP Internal this year. She loves all the aspects of TV production, especially editing. Last year she was Assistant Editor and focused her work on Cooking While Drunk, but this year she is who you will go to about your membership. Born in Washington DC and raised in the Maryland suburbs, Rebecca has finally been able to combine her interests of film and business here at McGill. She loves to meet new people so if you are interested in TV McGill dont hesitate to stop by the office or a meeting, or you can send her an email at vpinternal@tvmcgill.com!

Kira Leinonen - VP External Starting her victory lap here at McGill to polish off a newly-decided major in Cultural Studies, Kira has hit the ground running as this year's VP External. Her excitement for all-things-TVMcGill have largely in part been fueled by her appreciation for the arts, enthusiastic individuals and good conversation, all of which she loves to entertain over a pitcher of sangria. Always looking to spread the TVMcGill love, she would be more than happy to find ways for our services to promote your club, service, or company. If you want to help us help you, stop by the office or drop a line at vpexternal@tvmcgill.com. If not, she'd love to hear from you anyway -- especially so she can convince you otherwise!


Youri Tessier-Stall - News Producer Youri (no, he's not Russian) is this year's News Producer for TV McGill. After spending a year country-hopping around Europe, he is more than happy to be back in Montreal, back at McGill and back at TVM. Youri is a Political Science Honours/Hispanic Studies Minor student who likes jazz, traveling and popping bubble-wrap. He strongly dislikes bananas, almond extract and hearing people unwrap candy during a movie. In addition to having a trilingual name, his qualities include being colourblind and having red hair. Youri is in charge of the News production section of TVM and is always looking for new ideas - so don't be shy to drop in or get in touch.


Lucy Satzewich - Arts Producer Lucy Satzewich is a second year Arts major. She has used the shear volume of her laugh to climb up the TVMcgill ladder. Last year she served under Queen Jessica, fetching her coffee and feeding her dog on weekends in order to take over her position as Arts Producer. This year Lucy is very excited about working with her associate producers. As a team they plan to bring you only the best of the arts related activities happening at Mcgill and in the Montreal area. If you have any ideas about bands, galleries, dances or plays you would like to see featured on TVMcgill, or would like to help us, please don’t hesitate to ask at arts@tvmcgill.com or look for her sitting on the couch in the TVMcgill closet.


Lindsay Grant - Chief Editor Hey TVMcGillers! This is Lindsay, the Chief Editor for the coming year.

Entering her fourth year, Lindsay plans to travel a bit afterwards and then try to figure out what she should do next. Starting her 3rd season with TVM, Lindsay feels this could be be the best year YET and plans to take editing to the extreme - with the green screen!
