Matthew Watson
Project Manager
I am an outgoing, witty individual that enjoys engaging with people on a daily basis. My hobbies are motorbiking, boating, Webflow and spending as much time with friends and family. I have a diploma in business management and entrepreneurship and have experience in a vast area of industries. The one thing I really enjoy about working at Neslo is that we are constantly challenging each other to do better and are always learning new skills.
Benjamin Power
Full Stack Software Engineer
Skilled in many areas of software engineering, application development, deployment/hosting, and systems analysis/design. I've been a part of a dozen different projects & many teams. I have been a team lead on three projects, performed thousands of code reviews, and interviewed candidates for junior & intermediate positions. I pay scrupulous attention to any form of writing, so I also assist with copy-writing at Neslo. I'm obsessed with analyzing technology, complex systems, mass communication, human behaviour and cognition. And I'm constantly trying to understand how they all intertwine and drive us as a species. In my spare time I adore spending time with my friends and family, writing personal apps/libraries, reading books, articles, newsletters, studies, etc. on subjects both in & outside of technology and honestly learning about really anything.

Chad Olsen
Full Stack Software Engineer
After a change in my career path from a qualified electrician in 2017, I decided to learn to become a software developer. My initial learning path started out as a Java EE developer but has since transformed to becoming a full stack engineer and Solution’s analyst. My whole life I have always enjoying solving puzzles and problems, so a career in Software Development became a good fit for me. Most recently, this enjoyment for problem solving has evolved my daily functions to include a large amount of Business and Solution analysis when tackling new and existing projects. This evolution has also allowed the Neslo team to start branching other team member’s skills to include these analysis skills.
Sam Klette
Digital Designer
Office child and annoyance. Lover of any and all animals, except geese and spiders. As a designer I love making beautiful things, I enjoy UX/UI, branding and I’m starting to learn about the crazy world of animation. I enjoy creating a relationship with all the people that I work with and once I start talking you can’t get me to stop. I love working with a team and bouncing ideas off of each other. When not at work you can find me on a netball court most days and the others at gym, on a spinning bike or cuddling my animals.
Kwanele Ndenze

I take on coding challenges with a reserved and thoughtful approach, always aiming for elegant and innovative solutions. I'm all about continuous learning and seizing every chance for growth. Whether it's diving into new technologies or experimenting with creative projects, I thrive on the excitement of expanding my skill set. With my attention to detail and a sprinkle of creativity, I'm here to make a positive impact by crafting top-notch software solutions.
Tayla Graham
Lead Designer
I am a designer who loves working with all things digital from photography to product design but have a special place in my heart for UX/UI design. I strive to create designs that have purpose - that are functional yet emotionally rich. This isn’t just design that looks pretty, but design that makes the product more valuable. I am a stickler for good structure and processes, love building meaningful relationships with the people I work with and have pretty great active listening skills. I have a very detailed eye and love a good challenge where I can put my problem solving skills to the test.
Kellan Bishop
Business Development Manager
I am a hard-working, goal driven individual who strives for excellence and growth. My hobbies are socialising, music, and training. Even from a young age, I have been in the working world, gaining as much work experience as possible. From starting in the Lighting and Electrical Sales industry, to working in the Medical industry (working with Doctors in Hospital Theatre), to now working in Software Development. I have gained an extreme amount of knowledge and people skills. I strive to push myself in whatever field I am in to give the best I have to contribute to my team and the company. The thing I really enjoy about working with Neslo is the drive and the amazing team-work.
Crystal Burdett
Business Development Manager
I have a professional history and passion for management and sales roles. I enjoy working alongside people driven towards achieving the same ultimate goals, albeit procurement or reaching overall career culmination. My personal interests range from biological anatomy to the different ways in which one can create art. I spend my spare time with my loved ones and bonding with my dogs.
Tristan Carswell
Full Stack Software Engineer
I’m the type of person who gets bored pretty easily and that probably sums up why I love the fast paced environment of the software industry. Some of my hobbies include camping, hiking, sports and gaming. Anything to do with nature, I’m in! I can’t stand being stagnant and love the feeling of progression. I’m here to build cool tech!
Jamie Godwin
Digital Designer
I got started with my digital design career through my studies in Creative Brand Communication. With multi-disciplinary experiences every day is unique in my digital design career. When I am not working on my latest design project, I might be at the dog park, at the gym, cycling or doing yoga. As a designer I have always been motivated by creative projects, team work and the ability to create a connection between my efforts and the organisation's bottom line. The gratification of over coming an obstacle is one of my greatest motivators.
