I build Drupal sites in general, but also have extensive experience in porting your existing data (even if there's a lot of it) into Drupal from wherever you have it right now. I'm based in the Euro zone and have business facilities here in Ireland, as well as in the UK and the US.
Example sites
- ABCtales.com, the UK's largest community site for writers. It's an offshoot project of the Big Issue Magazine. The data, in its most recent previous incarnation, was in Plone. This site has four custom Drupal modules dedicated to handling its story collections.
- The entirely not-work-safe Cliterati is the UK's largest adult site for women. It was converted to Drupal in 2006 from Geeklog, and it churns out about a million pages per month.
- Evolt.org, the biggest and best web developer community anywhere, moved to Drupal in 2005. I moved the data.
- I've developed a number of UK Public Sector sites in the last 18 months, including Broadband for Guidance, Connexions Central London and Nextstep Hertfordshire
At Drupal.org
You'll find me looking after the Performance and Scalability Forum, and maintaining some modules, including Whatsrelated and the CV Builder suite.
I can be heard occasionally telling people about my experience with ditching Apache when using Drupal and using something which can scale much better instead.
