Ok #fediverse let's see what you've got.

I'm a #drupal developer with many years experience and I'm looking for my next opportunity. I specialise in front end theming and site building, however can also turn my hand to custom functionality and modules.

I've been #contracting for a few years now, however I'm also open to full-time, permanent gigs, preferably #remote or lightweight #hybrid.

If you'd like a conversation to see if my skillset fits, I'm all ears.

Thanks
