skills that he’s going to be studying his certificate IV in IT while working with Plezzel. Phew, go Mitchell!

It’s fair to say Ben is one determined and motivated fella, and this is further demonstrated by his back packing experiences and securing his own home before the grand age of 23! It might be worth commandeering his real estate knowledge too!

With five-star software engineering skills, Tom brings buckets of enthusiasm to Plezzel’s
support team, as well as oodles of technical expertise in several programming languages

To say we were pretty impressed with his notable projects, which included creating an
entire custom Minecraft game mode enjoyed by over 30,000 unique players, is an
understatement. We were awe-struck! We were also excited to learn about his university
internship that saw him collaborate with students from different areas to create an easy-to-
learn program for the elderly to pay their bills online. Top marks Tom!

Then we discovered he’s a pretty decent guy outside of work too, volunteering his
weekends to encourage habitat creation by planting new trees at the You Yangs and
preserving endangered wildlife. Phew! That’s what we call one virtuous fella!

Experience

We are over the moon to have discovered the talents and entrepreneurial skills of Renaissa. Having completed a double degree in a Bachelor of Laws (LLB) / Bachelor of Commerce (BCom, Marketing), we are thrilled to include her in our Plezzel team. Renaissa assists us with drafting our external and in-house legal documents as well as blog article writing to maintain and increase our digital presence.

Whilst studying, Renaissa founded and co-created a mobile app, FlipStrip, which helped users create personalised GIFs by editing individual frames with text, stamps and filters for use on Facebook and Instagram. On top of overseeing promotional techniques to derive the maximum efficacy of the social media campaign, Renaissa had to overcome a number of licensing obstacles. Fortunately, her IP law knowledge helped her to research precedent and statutory law to find a solution. Wow, we’re impressed!

Renaissa’s role at JPH Lawyers as a Lawyer (Head of Property) saw her executing property settlements and providing legal advice on contracts relating to property and corporate law.  It must come as no surprise that we love to tap into her knowledge, expertise and enthusiasm.

You heard it here first – we discovered her!
