Storbie CEO, Shane Bartle, is placed centre stage by the Dominion Post as he shares insights into his experiences as an IT entrepreneur and, surprisingly as an actor.
It’s not the most common career combination but mixing acting with software development has served Shane Bartle well. In fact he credits his treading the boards with preventing his being stereotyped. “I feel I was saved from being a complete geek by acting!” he laughs. “It’s rounded me out perhaps – and, funnily enough, to be successful these days in the computer industry, there’s probably more art to it than people think. It’s a people industry as much as it is a ones and zeroes industry.”
