I started creating websites in 2001, writing my first HTML, CSS and JS websites in Notepad over dial up internet. In 2005 I started on my journey with data driven websites with my own PHP and MySQL content management system. By 2009 I had moved to Drupal 7 and many Drupal sites were built over the years, with a few static Bootstrap sites built for good measure.
In 2021, I started working in Backdrop CMS and haven't looked back. I have built Backdrop sites for small businesses and non-profits. I have ported several modules to Backdrop, created modules and am also the maintainer of the Backdrop command line tool, Bee.
