I've worked in Testing and Management in Product Development for around 15 years. This has been mainly at companies in the Media Space (Canon, Apple, Quickcut, Adstream and BigPond/Telstra).

Most recently, as a Product Manager at Telstra, I have extended this experience to a highly process driven, multi-layered environment. Dealing with the diverse divisions within the Telstra Group as well as multiple external vendors I help continue established relationships and develop new ones.

In addition to developing quality products and maintaining existing ones, my focus has been on providing and improving services and value from a users perspective.

There’s been a lot of news recently about the personal and private information accessed by apps on my smartphone. If I use Facebook Places to share where I am with friends, it’s pretty obvious the Facebook app needs access to my location. However, sometimes apps access my info for reasons that are not so obvious.

We are all familiar with the emails advertising the sorts of items which good marketers would know never to send you. Yes Spam continues to be as much a part of being on the internet as videos on YouTube or chatting with friends on Facebook.
