DDD Perth is back for 2020
Rebecca Waters
Chairperson
Without a doubt, DDD Perth 2019 was huge.
DDD WA Inc Committee for 2020 in 8-bit glory
835 Registered Attendees
It’s mind-blowing to think that five years ago, we had 100 people attending the first DDD Perth. Last year we had over 200 people on the waitlist, in addition to the 835 people registered to attend on the day.
The work that went into ensuring Conference Day went smoothly can hardly be exaggerated; committee members worked day and night amongst other life commitments and volunteers worked a 12 hour day to make sure that every participant had a fun and safe experience.
So here we are again at the beginning of a new year, with a refreshed committee of new faces as well as a few you might recognise!
Rebecca Waters, Matt Ward, and Ian Hughes are returning office bearers, and we welcome Sham Chukoury as our new secretary.
Rob Moore is continuing to donate his valuable time as a committee member, as is Cairo Malet, Vedusha Chooramun, Kristy Sachse, Aidan Morgan, David Schokker, Inaie Ignacio, Allen Azemia, Amy Kapernick, and Mohamed Zaatar.
We have a number of new members, which gives us a fantastic opportunity to bring new ideas to 2020. A huge welcome to these new stars!
