Bio: 

Johanna is currently principal and front-end developer at DevCollaborative. She built her first website in 1999 and has been working in nonprofit technology ever since. Formerly a web technologist at the WGBH Educational Foundation in Boston, she then spent eight years directing technology and tech strategy at Community Partners, a Massachusetts health care reform organization. An independent consultant since 2010, Johanna specializes in building websites in open source platforms and has been focused on front-end Drupal development since Drupal version 4.7. Her favorite projects are those where building a website is a catalyst that helps an organization work more efficiently, creatively, and sustainably. She has been an active member of NTEN for over a decade, served for four years on the NTC agenda steering committee, and co-moderates NTEN's Drupal Community of Practice and its monthly Drupal community chats. .
