I am the General Manager of People and Marketing for HTG, an organisation founded in Technology, owning and operating a number of Telstra stores and Telstra Business Technology Centres as well as another large technology provider Techwell. In its simplest form, we essentially keep people and businesses connected through technology.

Every year HTG holds The Diamond awards, during this award night each winner selected gets sent away to a beautiful location for three days to relax, have fun and spend time with the other hard-working winners.
Friendship is something we tend to perceive as a state of being to which we develop a relationship from being strangers. We develop a sense to which we are able to understand another person.
