Leslie Nassar
Leslie grew up in Adelaide, but he is not a serial killer.
He designed and built the podcasting platform used by ABC Radio National, and was a Senior Emerging Technology Specialist at Telstra. While at Telstra, Leslie was responsible for the Fake Stephen Conroy and Today, Tonight parodies on Twitter.
Leslie lives in Melbourne with his wife, two daughters, and two increasingly fat and stupid cats.
You can follow him on Twitter as @stephenconroy or @leslie_nassar.
