I have worked with Drupal for 4+ years now. 2 of those at Achieve Internet, here in San Diego. (10+ Years in PHP overall).

Bio

I'm a Software Engineer. My weapon of choice is PHP. My PHP5 skills were certified by Zend: http://a.dla.cr/zce
I prefer web development over other distributed solutions.

I maintain a handful of modules on D.O. My areas expertise include integration, backend development and performance tuning.

Fully bilingual ( English / Spanish ) and bi-cultural. I interact well with people

I have always loved working for small companies and effective teams. Love the quick pace of development, and that's part of what I bring to the table.

My current emphasis is growing the Drupal community in Costa Rica. There's great potential talent just waiting to be taken to new heights. http://drupalcr.org will provide training material and support to help striving individuals achieve their goals. http://DrupalLatinAmerica.com will then capture freelance work that this individual can carry out thus making the Drupal community continue to grow.

If you have questions, ideas, plans, let's talk.
