FULL BIO

Aussie, university medalist of IT degree, 10 years experience in mobile and internet product management, including launching products in 23 countries with Vodafone Global, and launching 12 products in 4 months with an O2 funded startup.

I have a background in web and mobile product management, designing and launching innovative products for Vizzavi, Vodafone live!, Smart Global and Fairfax Business Media in multiple countries.

Mid-2006 I started Skimbit (www.skimbit.com), the world's first social decision-making tool, that skims the best bits of sites you like to help you make group or tricky decisions easily.

In September 2007, I also launched Skim-in-a-box (www.skim-in-a-box.com), a pioneering white-labelled version of the Skimbit.com service, that enables portals and other companies to license and offer the tool to their own clients.

I am now seeking seed funding for Skimbit in order to finance our expansion into semantic technologies and new markets.

I am also looking to recruit a genius PHP developer and bright product manager, so if you are interested, please contact me!
