As a senior solutions consultant for Ooyala I design online video solutions for broadcasters and publishers. Some of my recent projects are; Shine Australia -The Voice, Telstra Media platforms – Foxtel, Bigpond Movies, SMH.TV, Foxsports, Austereo, ANZ and Roadshow Entertainment.

The investment arm of Australia’s largest communications company Telstra announced an investment in Ooyala in July 2012.
Telstra plugs $35m into Ooyala for IPTV
Telstra has invested $35 million in US-based IPTV video company Ooyala, in a move that will see Telstra integrate Ooyala’s technology into its IPTV platform. Telstra will fund Ooyala through its Applications and Ventures Group, headed up by Deena Schiff. In addition to Telstra being a major investor, Ooyala also announced that the two companies are working on a commercial agreement that will see Telstra deploy Ooyala’s software and analytics into its IPTV platform, T-Box. Ooyala already works with companies such as Miramax, Bloomberg, Tennis Australia, Dell and Yahoo in Japan.

Overview
I provide technical solutions for the media industry. I work as a consultant, helping clients use new media to solve problems and generate results. I’ve worked in the online industry for 14 years. I gained the most business experience as stakeholder of two internet start ups (www.surf.co.nz,  www.safetyplanner.com)

Other Ventures
In 1998 I partnered up with Peter Morse and Keith Redman to develop surf.co.nz, Australasia’s most popular surf report and surfcam site.
As shareholder and technical developer Surf.co.nz took up much of my spare time up until 2003
when the site was sold to Lloyd Morrison’s company Infratril.
