Previous open source
From about 2008 to 2016 I was part of the Drupal open-source community.

I helped write the Drupal Security Report, wrote about multi-factor authentication for Drupal Watchdog, led the team behind DrupalCon Denver 2012, co-organized the monthly Drupal NYC meetup, and spoke on security at DrupalCons and camps.
