Richard Sheppard

Technologist with 25 years experience in corporations, SMEs and startups. Currently most interested in building interactive community based sites with Drupal content management system + hosting those web sites.

I was giving serious consideration to turning my back on web development in 2006, and probably IT altogether. But then I stumbled upon Drupal and it all made sense again.

My current job is Senior Systems Developer for Aroq Ltd, a B2B web publisher - http://www.just-auto.com, http://www.just-style.com, http://www.just-food.com & http://www.just-drinks.com. I was hired to start the transition from .NET to Drupal, and it's a very exciting and challenging time.

My initial Drupal work was under my sole trading business of Silicon Meadow, which I'm still running, but in a drastically reduced capacity, due to my work with Aroq.
