Drupal in Canberra gets a boost
Lead Consultant Christopher Skene joins PreviousNext to drive the adoption of Drupal in the Australian government.
Chris' experience covers all aspects of the web development process, as well as marketing, information management and the semantic web. He has worked in government, education, not-for-profits and the publishing sector, helping organisations optimise their knowledge assets for public consumption in networked world, and align their information strategies with their business model. He also helps run Canberra's monthly Drupal meetups.
"Joining PreviousNext gives me the opportunity to work on interesting, high-profile projects which are often on the cutting edge of digital technology. There's an emerging world of linked data opportunities, and PreviousNext is doing some of the best work in Australia” said Chris.
Over the course of his ten-year career, Chris has worked as the Knowledge Manager and Platform Developer for Global CCS Institute, Web Manager at the Australian National University and as an eBusiness Officer at Land and Water Australia (LWA). He looks forward to putting his Drupal enterprise experience to use.
He says, "PreviousNext’s commitment to Drupal is fantastic. As a client, you want a company which can provide you with useful, scalable and elegant solutions to your particular online communications challenges, and for many companies, Drupal is the right tool to get you there. I look forward to offering a personal service to our clients in Canberra through the new office here. Drupal is the perfect fit for government at all levels, and I'll be looking to grow the Drupal community in the ACT further."
