About

Hi, I’m Shane. I’m a business administrator, web designer, software developer, and digital marketer based in South Australia.

You might know me as the developer behind System Ninja, CCEnhancer, and the now defunct JavaRa, which are software products created for Microsoft Windows. They’ve been downloaded tens of millions of times and have been translated into dozens of languages. You can find them on SingularLabs.

I’m a familiar face in the Australian pet industry, particularly in bird-keeping circles. I run Aussie Finch Forum, Australia’s largest community for finch breeders; as well as Aviculture Hub, one of the fastest-growing websites for bird enthusiasts. I also created AviManage—a computer program that helps monitor bird breeding results and track genealogy, which is used by bird parks, zoos, and large-scale breeders all around the world.

From 2023, I became the general manager of Agline; a pet supplies wholesale and distribution business based in South Australia. I am also the director of an eCommerce chocolate and gift business called Curatorial Chocolates, which I acquired in 2023. That was a busy year.

Experience

I attained a Bachelor of Business from the University of South Australia.

Digital marketing (Google Ads, social media, strategy), bookkeeping and accounting, strategic and operations management, procurement, logistics, and business information systems are just some of the areas in which I have professional experience.

Although my formal education is in business, I also have substantial software and web development experience, having worked with C#, Visual Basic (.NET), Java, PHP, HTML/CSS, Python and MySQL. I’m a competent systems administrator and graphic designer as well.

My preferred platforms for building websites are WordPress—which I’ve used since 2009—and WooCommerce.

Can I hire or partner with you?

Yes! I’m always keeping my eyes open for new projects.

Just shoot me an email if you think I might be a good fit for your business.
