During the last two, I sea changed from IT Manager, to ITSM Consultant, and completed enough certifications to have the OLD title of Atlassian Certified Expert. I can talk for hours on JSM.

Passionate about pursuing my Ikigai - finding purpose and joy in everything I do. I have enjoyed an amazing career in the tech industry over the years from developing, consulting, training, sal… Hosted By Mark Higgins, Atlassian Community Leader I've been a supporter of Atlassian and its products since they where a small office in Sydney, which goes back to the start of the century (nearly). I've been in IT forever, even before it was called IT, as was known as the EDP department. Starting in 1984, just after the first PC came out, I've seen and been involved in so much change in IT, that its unrecognizable from the time I started. I remember Windows NT4, Windows 3.1, SQL 6.0 , floppy disks and a number of others that are now consigned to history. To be part of the community, is very rewarding, and I've always been someone who volunteers, from coaching my son's soccer team, from the U7's, cricket teams, my daughters soccer team, my work with Oxfam. I love community sport events, having done 17 Oxfam trail walks, more than 10 City to Surfs, Countless Gong Rides, Bowral Rides, half a dozen Half marathons, and 20 years ago, the Sydney marathon. Now, its mostly cycling, and my South Sydney Rabbitohs, and now that I can WFH, my labradoodles, Casper and Willow. Prashant Gami, Atlassian Community Leader For decades, Prashant has been helping businesses stay ahead of their competition by creating a culture of continuous innovation that adds significant value. After scaling multiple businesses and leading some of Australia’s biggest dev teams, Prashant is using his expertise, in-depth knowledge and passion for technology to drive hypergrowth for his clients at x·enabler. Pragya Malhotra, Atlassian Community Leader 😼 Tom Zhu, Atlassian Community Leader Hi, I’m Tom Zhu from Shanghai, now based in Sydney, with a deep love for technology, cats, and multicultural collaboration.

I’m passionate about solving problems with tech, sharing insights, and building connections in the global Atlassian ecosystem. James O'Connor, Atlassian Community Champion I've been in the IT industry for nearly three decades, starting out as a developer back in the mid-90s before moving into the world of Business Analysis.
