Edward Zwart - Developer

Edward Zwart was originally drawn to Drupal for its power and flexibility and its potential for use as an application framework. He was also immediately blown away by the open source community, and remains a strong believer in it as a viable and necessary community-based initiative. Whether he's contributing in the issue queue or making new connections at Drupalcons and summits, Edward considers participating in the Drupal community one of the biggest rewards.

Edward believes that computer science is underrated as a natural bridge between language arts and hard-core science. He is very much an agnostic when it comes to classic “code wars” which can sometimes plague the software development community. He believes that writing concise, elegant code that is meaningful to a user is very similar to writing effective copy for an intended audience.

His main interest as a developer is back-end development and architectural design, but like most Drupal developers, he also often finds himself working on the front end, including site building and theming. His personal interests include science, politics, and education. When he's not waxing philosophical about reforming one of the latter two, he can also be found off cycling, curling, or hand drumming.

Kathy Chavez - Developer

Kathy Chavez has been doing Web design and development for sixteen years, starting with straight HTML sites made with Dreamweaver, and then moving on to Mambo and WordPress. Her first experience with Drupal was as a PM interfacing with clients doing wireframing/architecture and putting vision and goals to paper. She then moved on to development and theming, and can take a site from concept to PSD to buildout to launch. One of her specialties is reverse engineering, and she is currently ramping up her custom module building chops.

Kathy is very active in the Drupal Community, and is currently working on DrupalCon Denver, helping to organize the pre-conference trainings. She is also involved with the Denver/Bolder DrupalChix meetup group as a co-organizer and presenter. In addition, Kathy has started her own online study group, Drupalista Study Group, which works together to learn more about custom module building and Drupal stuff in general.

The one thing Kathy loves better than anything is being a mom to her two wonderful daughters. When she's not being a track mom, playing with Drupal, or trying to keep up on her skills, you'll find her listening to books, playing RockBand, or in the battlefields on WoW.

Rob Decker - Developer

Rob Decker has been building websites since the mid-90s. He started building sites in plain HTML, moved on to a ASP.NET, found Drupal about four years ago, and hasn't looked back. He loves not having to reinvent the wheel on every website, as well as the large and active community.

Rob enjoys all aspects of creating Drupal websites, but is at his best when doing front-end work. He is especially skilled at turning a Photoshop comp into a beautiful and functional site. He is equally at home hand coding HTML and CSS as he is writing fun JavaScript interactions.
