Bio: 

The only reason that this account still exists is because I am required to have it for my professional career. I do not support the governance model of the community. I no longer take others actions as a professional/personal responsibility as I have removed myself from all leadership roles, both personally and professionally within and outside of the Drupal community.

For me, I must amend the "Drupal Slogan:" "Come for the code. Stay for the community." to include, "Leave because of the toxic children."

If this offends you, I would take a step back and ask yourself "why does this offend me?" before you send me any hate mail.

Enjoy your community, kids. I'll keep using your code and applying my own patches.

Legacy Bio [below, c.2011/12]:
Hello, I'm Erik, a founding partner of CLoud NYNE Design, a Drupal shop currently based in Portland, Oregon - CND is on a "World Tour!" The controlling partners began their adventure in the summer of 2011 and will be working remotely for the next few years. CND plans on attending and presenting at Drupal events around the world; local user groups, regional camps/summits, and conferences. CND has been utilizing Drupal since 2008 as a platform for their web based products. We have been very active in our local (Florida) Drupal community and have started many great relationships with other Drupal shops across the USA. We look forward to meeting all of you [or seeing you again] at DrupalCon Austin, and any regional camp or meetup wherever we might be.
