I work as a Senior Communications Advisor with the Ontario Government's Cabinet Office, overseeing the economic and social portfolio. Previously, I ran Ontario's Online Newsroom and worked within its new media unit.
I graduated with distinction from Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario, Canada where I studied political science.
In my work, I strive to help create transparent government processes, plain-language communications, governance across jurisdictions and government services that help people.
As a public servant, I'm deeply interested in the connections between technology, policy and communications. I dive into projects that pull these worlds together with a strategic mind to use tax dollars smartly.
I also keep an online home at http://anthimeria.com, a little place where I share stories about food and life.
