James Howe
Telstra plays a role in the life of Australians everyday and has so many great stories to tell – and I’m the lucky one who gets to help tell that story to the world. I joined Telstra in 2012 and get to juggle newspaper deadlines, radio and TV interviews and, importantly for a telco company, ensure we are adapting to the world of online and social media.
Beyond my day job I’m busy renovating my house, running marathons, completing an MBA and raising a family – a self-confessed high achiever!

Ashley Jenkins
I work for Microsoft Australia as the Xbox LIVE dashboard manager, CRM manager, and community manager. I began playing games when I was young and never looked back. In 2000 I began creating fansites for my favourite games. Among these was a game called Shadowbane, for which I was soon offered a position writing as a Herald, reporting on in-game politics and events. In 2004 I became a founding member of the Frag Dolls, the highest profile all-female gaming team in the world. During my 4 years with the team I appeared on major television channels such as G4 and Spike TV, contributed to several Prima game guides, wrote for Pro Gam3r magazine, and appeared on the cover of PCXL magazine, all while juggling a full-time position as an online marketing manager with Ubisoft.
In 2008 I relocated Sydney to begin working with the local division of Xbox. I have since appeared on Sky Business, Sky Sports, Alpha magazine, News.com.au, SheSaid, & etc. in my mission to school the world about videogames.

Simeon Joyce
Simeon heads up Telstra’s cloud applications offer marketing team, which brings business applications to market on T-Suite for small-to-medium businesses, and on Telstra’s cloud services ecosystem for large businesses and enterprise.
Simeon is an enthusiastic believer that cloud can change the game for business productivity and profitability, although admits his spark is partly fueled by a constant stream of coffee.
Outside work, his personal interests rarely get a look-in given the demands of his two small children, but include cycling and staring longingly at his guitar and dreaming about reliving his high school cover-band glory days.
