key team
 scott "sanga" samways state director
You could say Sanga is a typical surfy bloke from Newcastle but apart from surfing he has a real gift with youth. He's an incredible leader and teen comunicator. Yes that's right he is the big man; the State Director of Youth Alive. We are honoured and privileged to have Sanga as the State Director as he has lots of vision for the future and an incredible heart for the youth. Sanga is one of the funniest guys around, he is full of incredible stories and good times. But on a serious note Sanga is an amazing man with a lot of talent. Sanga is taking Youth Alive to new heights. You can only expect things to get better when Sanga's in control.
sandra hudson events and marketing manager
In the beginning was Sandra. Sandra was before all things and all things that are, are because of Sandra. She is an unstoppable organisational force that is the powerhouse behind all the events we hold here at Youth Alive, and is the mother of all organisations anywhere in the world ever. She is also the mother of a little boy, Evander, daughter Emerald, and wife to husband of the year, Dan...oh, and somehow finds time to be passionate about her beloved football team St George...Sandra is one of kind...where would we be without Sandra??
DAVE LT MARKETING ASSISTANT
Dave is our Youth Alive marketing man. Joining the dots between our websites, mail-outs, email campaigns, print media, videos and more... Dave is all about figuring out how to spread the word even further about the Big Exo Day, and our other events. A devoted mac user, a fan of sneakers, good jeans and hip-hop, but unfortunately plagued with lactose intollerance... he will automatically become your best friend if you either buy him a soy latte, or talk about travelling. Dave is passionate about everyone on the planet living, breathing, eating, dreaming and talking about the Big Exo Day...
