Jeremy Caldwell

I'm a freelance front-end developer who specializes in Drupal theming, site development, and UX. Located in Spokane, WA.

I've been working with Drupal since version 4.7 (2006) and have been designing and developing for the web since 1998. My experience in design helps bring a different approach to development and accounts for user experience along the way. This ensures the project is easy to use and allows for future development and makes for a better project all around.

I stay current on new technologies and strive to incorporate new development tools and best practices into my workflow and share what I've learned with others.

Associations:
