Political campaigner, focusing on making votes count and citizen engagement issues in the UK. Interested in lessons we can learn from these elections; especially use of the web, grassroots mobilisation and electoral strategy. My blog, http://www.sixfiftyblog.com, began as a way of reporting my experiences at the Democratic Convention. Life before becoming so engrossed in politics included living in Tanzania; working for a Fairtrade chocolate company; and completing British Council's Interaction leadership programme.
