Lewis joins High Tech council

The Massachusetts High Technology Council named Beacon Hill insider Wyndham Lewis as its new vice president.

The council, a technology business lobbying group, said Lewis will oversee its legislative and policy agenda.

During the Romney administration, Lewis served as chief of staff for Ranch C. Kimball, former Massachusetts secretary of economic development.

"Wyndham's deep government experience and understanding of economic policy make him a great fit for the council," council president Christopher R. Anderson said in a statement.
