Reaching Me On Vacation

These days when I go on holiday, I am making a real effort to actually unplug from work. This includes not looking at email until I return (truthfully, I won't be looking at it whatsoever) .

My colleagues at Global Integrity will be able to reach me in a true emergency via SMS/phone. If your need to reach me during vacation meets one of the criteria below, you may contact them and ask them to send me an SMS.  Otherwise, I very much appreciate your respect for the time off and look forward to catching up upon my return.

Here are some people who can help you in the interim on various issues. You can reach them telephonically at the Global Integrity office at +1-202-449-4100 or via email at FIRSTNAME.LASTNAME@globalintegrity.org. Carrier pigeon is also an option.

Thanks,

Nathaniel

How to Find Me at the OGP Summit in London

I'll be attending the Open Government Partnership summit in London on October 31 and November 1. I'm arriving the morning of October 30 and hope to head directly to the civil society day. I'll be at the summit for the full two days and running a panel on the "New Frontiers" of open government on Friday November 1.

If you're trying to find me at the summit, please try me on my mobile at +44 7924 472413. See you there!

On Saturday We Ride

This weekend I'm joining 5,500 fellow cyclists with the goal of raising $38 million for life-saving cancer research and treatment at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI) in Boston. I am personally committed to raising $4,300 in the 2013 Pan-Mass Challenge (PMC). Today I am asking for your support. On Saturday we ride.

I hope I can count on your support

The PMC raises more money for charity than any other single event in the country, $375 million since 1980 and $37 million last year alone! This success is the result of a lot of people riding for, and caring about, a cure. And because every penny matters, 100 percent of your donation goes to cancer research and treatment at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute through it's Jimmy Fund.

I've made a personal commitment to ride and raise $4,300. So I hope you can help me achieve this significant goal.

Me + bike + your support = lifesaving cancer treatments and an eventual cure

Reaching Me On Vacation

I'm going on vacation; twice during the summer of 2013, in fact. For once, I am making a real effort to actually unplug from work. This includes not looking at email until I return from each trip (truthfully, I won't be looking at it whatsoever) .

My colleagues at Global Integrity will be able to reach me in a true emergency via SMS/phone. If your need to reach me during vacation meets one of the criteria below, you may contact them and ask them to send me an SMS.  Otherwise, I very much appreciate your respect for these days off and look forward to catching up upon my return.
