I work in the Public Sector, have a keen interest in Digital, Open Data, Data visualisations and Social Technology. I help organise UKGovcamp, #Teacamp, UK Civil Service Stammering Network with some wonderful folks.
I have a terrible weakness for all things shiny and tech, especially crowdsourcing sites like Kickstarter.
