I live in High Peak, about 20km south-east of Manchester, with my wife Anna Grant (who has worked for AlphaPlus since August 2009), our daughter Elsa (b. 2006), and some of the time my daughter Eve (b. 2000).

I work 4 days per week with the Institute for Educational Cybernetics in the University of Bolton, mostly for JISC CETIS, splitting my time between home, office, and external meetings. The 5th day is available for freelance consultancy. My interests include e-portfolio technology supporting personal development practice, skills, abilities and competence, values and (social) identity. In these areas, I'm experienced both in the technical side of web systems, interoperability, and conceptual models, and in the human side of practice and the community of practice. I enjoy bringing my own clear vision together with insights of others towards durable consensus.
My book, "Electronic Portfolios: Personal information, personal development and personal values" was published by Woodhead Publishing (Chandos imprint) in April 2009. It is available through Amazon. People tell me it is highly thought-provoking - if you want to know how it would appeal to you, please talk to me.
