Formerly I have taken the responsibility of Scholarship & Education for the chapter. These past two years have been spent assisting our president and international president . Many roles have been fulfilled, as we are a small chapter with a sizeable membership.
As a parent first and foremost, Maggie has had her share of fundraising events, always for a good cause. She has a fresh view on an old approach.
Demi is the Principal Designer of Demi Melissinou Design, a boutique design firm in Oakville, Ontario. She is an international Interior Designer currently working out of both Canada and Athens, Greece. With a BA and an MA from London’s Middlesex University she has been designing spaces in North America, in Europe and the Middle East for over 25 years. She has served as President of the Toronto Chapter for two consecutive terms in the past and continues being an active NEWH member until today. She is a proud mama of twins, a huge movie buff and loves good food and travelling.
Tara joined the Toronto Chapter of NEWH shortly after graduating from Western University with a cross-disciplinary degree in business and psychology. Her first furniture company, Vandervitt Inc., amalgamated into her family’s stainless steel business, Tarrison Products Ltd., in 2018. It continues to run as a successful division of Tarrison, and Tara serves as the Operating Partner for the overall corporation. She is also the Chief Marketing Officer of AbleDocs Inc. AbleDocs was founded in 2019 and is the worldwide leader in document accessibility products and services.
I am currently the Scholarship Director for the Toronto Chapter. As a past NEWHinc. Clifford Tuttle Scholarship recipient, the scholarship position held a special place in my heart as it has allowed me to give back to other students as the organization did for me. My career would not have been what it is today without NEWHinc. and for that, I will be forever grateful.
Doug has an extensive background in hospitality, having worked in the industry for 20 years. He joined NEWH in 2020, serving in various roles including Fundraising Director and Programing Director, and currently holds the position of Equity, Inclusion and Diversity Director.
