The high-tech world is frequently (and rightfully) seen as antithetical to democracy - but it doesn't have to be that way. We're proud to welcome Jeremy Smith, an Army veteran and Austin-based information technology innovator who has led the way on a growing array of digital platforms and products that are designed to increase and enhance our connection to the democratic process - NOT to isolate us from it, as is all too often the case.
