Nicholas Alex Crofts

Project Manager, Direction des Systèmes d'Information (DSI), Switzerland

Born in London, England, Nick now lives in Switzerland with his wife, three children, and a cat. After studying Philosophy and History of Art in Canterbury and a brief spell in radio journalism, Nick started working at the National Sound Archives in London where he first became interested in information management. Nick studied information technology in Geneva and spent several years working in the documentation department of Geneva's Musée d'art et d'histoire. He is currently working as project manager for MusInfo project - computerising Geneva's Museums. Nick is also co-chair of the ICOM/CIDOC Documentation Standards Group, which is busy putting together a "Conceptual Reference Model" for museum information - a task which requires endless hours of intense philosophical discussion in exotic locations but which is nonetheless nearing completion.
