For those coming from davidwatson.name, welcome! This is my temporary home on the Web until I get my new website up and running. I do a lot more than Drupal, though it is something I specialize in.
If you'd like to get in touch, please feel free to use my contact me on Drupal.org (requires an account), or reach me at dave@davidwatson.name. I look forward to hearing from you!
I'm a Web architect, designer, published researcher, and full-stack engineer based in the greater New York City area. Taking a holistic approach that bridges several design and development disciplines, I have both managed and implemented multiple award-winning websites over the past twelve years. I'm very passionate about crafting user experiences on a foundation of inclusive design and accessibility, and believe the Web should be something made available to everyone.

Over the course of the past twelve years, I have managed and developed multiple award-winning Drupal websites for some of the world's most prominent and up-and-coming brands, including Stevens Institute of Technology, Adweek, and The Hollywood Reporter.
In addition, I also maintain the following Drupal projects:
- Undine, a cross-platform, turnkey development environment for Drupalistas that mimics the Acquia Cloud
- Advanced Alias and Redirect Checking, a module providing a means of managing aliases and redirects for URLs that may already be in use
- Sanitize, a utility for creating and distributing sanitized database exports
- Aqueduct, a fully responsive Drupal distribution for personal websites
- Golden Grid, a responsive HTML5 base theme based on the work of Joni Korpi
- Golden Gridlet, a responsive design aid for use with Golden Grid
- Applications & Postings, a module that treats form submissions as first-class citizens in Drupal
I frequently provide patches and patch reviews running the gamut from Features to Feeds, from Commerce to Core. Every now and again I can be found providing support via forums/IRC/issue queues, in addition to offering mentoring to junior developers, serving as a FOSS advocate, and providing free training for local Drupal user groups.
