Russell Keppner

I am the husband of the former Rachel Williams and the father of ten energetic children, with the eleventh arriving in June. We live in the Valley of the Sun, the Phoenix, Arizona metro, where I suffer through the oppressive summers because I love the city.

I am the out-of-the-box pioneer in my family, having introduced my wife to home school, alternative medicine, and other “radical” notions early in our marriage. After getting her on board, I now do my best to support her and our children in their educational endeavors. I am also an aspiring amateur cook, and love to share my ethnically-diverse concoctions with family and friends, or just seek out the more exotic options at local ethnic restaurants.

I've been a web developer for 12 years, specializing on PHP on LAMP. When I tried Drupal two-and-a-half years ago, I fell in love, married myself to it and haven't looked back since. I switched all my projects to Drupal 5 and then ported them to Drupal 6. I no longer take on work that isn't Drupal related. I also recently joined the team at Achieve Internet, and I'm excited to continue spreading Drupally goodness with them.
