Summary

I TEACH & DEVELOP Drupal!

BIO

I entered Geekdom as a fifth grader in 1983 with a Commodore 64 & a 300baud connection to CompuServe. 31 years later I started the Indiana Drupal Users Group & develop websites in Drupal and teach Drupal full-time.

Catch my blog at www.DougVann.com. Google "Drupal Song," and you're likely to find a few videos of me, jamming on the guitar, unabashedly proclaiming my passion for Drupal!

My love for learning and experimenting in Drupal is overshadowed only by my love to teach and evangelize it. I have presented in Minneapolis, Toronto, Indianapolis, Ohio LinuxFest, DoItWithDrupal, and DrupalCamps in New York City, Madison, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Oakland, San Diego, Charlotte, Chicago, Orlando, Nashville, Chattanooga, Denver, etc.
You can often find me on the FREENODE IRC Network in Drupal-support helping people get through the learning curve of Drupal.
I reside in Indianapolis, Indiana with my wife of 18 years, & our 4 children.

Specialties: Individual training, Corporate training, Module development, Project discovery, Information architecture, Site Development.

Being a good geek is not enough in this high-tech era. I understand that technology means business & business means money. Wether I'm training you, building your project for you, or building your project with you, I understand that you have expectations that the final product will deliver solutions and positively impact your business.
I make sure that happens.
