  • David is a digital drunk.

    With over 15 years telecommunications industry experience, and an electrician and ex-underwear model to boot, David will fill your glass on about anything digital.

    Inebriated in a data deluged world he currently manages BigPond’s live streaming products to mobiles and online. Prior, David was in the ‘cloud’, or Telstra’s Sydney Internet Data Centre, where he coordinated a major power upgrade and managed the facilities day-to-day operations. He was also a broadcast field services team leader for the 2000 Olympic Games, and before that, on the corporate sales team for enterprise customers Woolworths, McDonald’s and Howard Smith.

    Leading a life which is a living yin and yang he spends his free time immersed in yoga, political activism, marketing electronic music artists, and measuring the Middle East’s ever-changing pulse.

    David also has a degree in communications.
