Many repeat customers. Built own site which was later sold to a large company. Developed various custom themes as well as subthemes. Also made modifications for clients to contributed themes. Large amount of freelancing I did involved writing custom modules & extending contribs. Heavy use of the Panels & Views module. Used Drupal Commons to build out a very complex website for the C.D.C with many custom modules. Wrote custom authenication module that prohibits access to the client’s servers without having a ‘Smart Card.’ Migrated over 10,000 organization nodes (content-type)with 30+ fields that are digested nightly via a custom Feed done w/ Feeds Tamper. Created a stored procedure for a page where user enters their zip-code and organizations within a certain distance are shown to user along with distance in miles it is away from user. The .storedprocedure makes it lightning quick. Custom page is written in AngularJS. EXPERIENCE
