An exciting new adventure

If you follow me on Twitter & FB, you would have seen my exciting news earlier today where I “announced” that from the 15th of July I will officially be joining the Private Property team, here in Durbs, in the role of Mobile Product Manager. This is an amazing opportunity, and I honestly can’t wait to get started on it. Essentially my job will be to conceptualize & “design” mobile apps, across all platforms, as well as manage mobile web apps & everything associated with it. As you can see that will be just up my alley given my passion for mobile technology (especially “iDevice”) as seen on this blog.

I leave Derivco after an awesome 3 years there, where I learnt so much. Derivco is a fantastic place to work, and it was an honour to join some of the best minds in both the online gaming industry & South Africa. I made some great friends & connections there, and I am sure I will miss the 12 o’clock lunchtime queues.

Strangely enough, the position at Private Property came totally out of the blue, and I even more peculiarly I got referred to them by a friend who reads my blog. If I can give one piece of advice, keep your Linkedin profile updated !! Yip, I didn’t have to submit a CV. Thanks to this site, Linkedin, Facebook & Twitter, I got this job :)

And I can’t wait to be there on the 15th ;)
