Who is Matthew Knott?
Matthew Knott is a SharePoint developer, web designer, and front-end standards expert. Matt has ten years professional experience.
Work Life
Matt is a SharePoint developer working for the City & County of Swansea Education Department, trying to make a difference in how teachers, parents and students use ICT and information.
Matt’s focus has been on developing solutions that add value to the authorities learning platform, focusing on collaboration tools and driving efficiency.
He has been there for nearly two years, joining after a long career with IBM developing call centre solutions. In addition to solution development, Matt is also trying to improve communication between schools, and between departments, creating collaboration tools that promote cross-school working, something that's not been done before. Although still being piloted, the departments involved are full of praise for the way it facilitates improvements in best-practice.
Personal Life
Matt lives with his wife, Lisa, and their two children, Michael, and new baby Charlotte, in South Wales. He's probably the happiest he's ever been right now.
His interests include reading, writing and learning, always eager to expand his horizons. In addition to development, Matt has also been a keen amature 3D artist, contributing to a number of 3D Websites, including the now dead SWMA.net. Matt is a massive Ospreys fan.
