I am the creative director of Rootwork.org, a freelance Drupal developer and online organizer. A co-founder of the Genocide Intervention Network, I was a community organizer in Philadelphia before relocating to Portland, Oregon, in 2012. I co-organized PDXTech4Good, affiliated with NetSquared and NTEN, for several years. I've presented at South By Southwest, the Nonprofit Technology Conference, U.S. Social Forum, New Organizing Institute, the Nonprofit Software Development Summit, and the Gandhi-King Conference, and post on Twitter @rootwork.
Contributor roles

Throughout my time in Drupal I've contributed to Drupal core on an ongoing basis and at global sprints and DrupalCon sprints. I've also contributed here and there to other projects, as well as the Drupal Diversity and Inclusion project.

I've spoken at the Pacific Northwest Drupal Summit, Drupaldelphia, Devsigner, and presented at several DrupalCamp nonprofit summits/workshops at places like the Nonprofit Technology Conference and BADCamp.

Started the Philadelphia-area Drupal group and helped organize it on and off (with plenty of help!) until 2012. Organized and spoke at dozens of Drupal for nonprofits groups, including a monthly virtual call and Drupal Day at the Nonprofit Technology Conference several times.
-
I was one of three folks overseeing what was then the scholarships and grants program for DrupalCon LA 2015.

Wrote the "Views 2 Theming" guide at the Drupalcon DC 2009 sprint, and continued to actively edit and contribute to documentation during this time.
I am the creative director of Rootwork.org, working with nonprofits and community groups as a Drupal developer and online organizer. I've been developing in Drupal since 2005, in the waning days of version 4.5.
I was the Drupalcon Portland frontend track chair in 2013, the Drupalcon Austin frontend global chair in 2014, and helped coordinate Drupalcon LA scholarships and grants in 2015.
I've been very active in the nonprofit tech and Drupal communities, long helped co-organize monthly Drupal for nonprofits and social change discussions and presented at the Pacific Northwest Drupal Summit, Nonprofit Tech Conference Drupal Day and the BADCamp Nonprofit Summit.
I started the Philadelphia Drupal group, and have helped organize and present at numerous "Drupaldelphia" camps. In 2012, I moved to Portland, Oregon, where I helped organize the Drupal-adjacent Devsigner Conference and presented at the Portland user group.
Because my focus is on nonprofits and small community groups, I've ended up specializing in theming and frontend development, as functionality needs are often met with existing modules.
I've attended code and documentation sprints at many Drupalcons and camps and help out in the queue when I can. (For instance, I wrote much of the Views 2 Theming handbook page way back at the Drupalcon DC 2009 doc sprint.) I'm often on #drupal-support to help out others and ask my own questions.
