About

Last Mod­i­fied: June 2011

Wel­come to my blog, Core Edges. This is where I orga­nize some of my thoughts. I’m mainly active on Twit­ter these days, and blog­ging is time con­sum­ing, but I’ll resume blog­ging here mainly on lifestyle themes.

My wife and I moved to Syd­ney in August 2010 – she accepted a posi­tion of Assis­tant Pro­fes­sor of Finance at the Aus­tralian School of Busi­ness and I gladly fol­lowed along – and this blog has been inac­tive on the pro­fes­sional front ever since as I am con­cen­trat­ing on sev­eral projects that are yet to emerge. Syd­ney is a fan­tas­tic city to live in, and after Prince­ton, Hous­ton, Lon­don, Paris and Lau­sanne, this is an incred­i­ble place to be, save for the dis­tance from, well, every­thing else ;-)

Up until June 2010 before we moved, I was the World­wide IT Inno­va­tion Man­ager for Schlum­berger (global oil and gas ser­vices com­pany). You can read more about my career there on my LinkedIn profile.

You’ll find some writ­ings from this period under the head­ing “Past pro stuff“ on this blog, but I’ll need to wait a few more months before seri­ously post­ing again pro­fes­sional con­tent. Let’s just say that I’m mov­ing closer to the funds man­age­ment domain and early-stage tech investing.

I am reach­able by email at jln /at/ coreedges.com and on twit­ter: @jnestour.

If you’re in Syd­ney please get in touch and we’ll meet :) Hope you’ll enjoy those pages.
