Nicholas has been a journeyman public servant since 2007.
He has worked both at the bottom and top of the hierarchical structures, on detailed policy analysis and on the coordination of Ministerial briefing books and calendars.
He currently provides advice to policy makers and senior executives on how to use new collaborative technologies to gain efficiencies, foster innovation, and improve engagement.
He has been sharing his thoughts on people, public policy and technology at cpsrenewal.ca for the last five years; he curates gov + memes, and is slowly writing a work of bureaucratic fiction.
He holds an undergraduate degree in Political Science, International Relations and Law from Carleton University and a Master’s degree in Conflict Studies from Saint Paul University.
