Mike is Director of Semantics and Standards at the Enterprise Data Management Council, an industry association in the financial services industry.

About me

I am the editor of the EDM Council Semantics Repository where I have created a framework for editing semantically rich material and presenting it in a technology neutral way for business subject matter experts. This is a long way from being perfect but I am committed to presenting business meaning to business people, but within a rigorous framework.

I'm based in London, where I live on the Thames river. I also sit on various committees which gives me an excuse to travel around a bit.
