But please keep the ugly ones locked up

Chris Shattuck

Developer, trainer, enthusiast

Welcome! If you are here to confirm that I'm a real person with verifiable skills, you may want to look at my projects. If you're curious about my Drupal work, one good example is Build a Module.com, the 50+ hour collection of original Drupal videos to help up and coming site builders, developers and themers learn Drupal. If you're looking for signs of my recent engagements with the world, I occasionally post updates to my blog and Twitter.

I have been a Drupal freelancer for the last several years, though I've recently been focusing my full-time efforts on Build a Module.com. I conducted a highly rated training at Drupalcon 2010 with an associate, and am now focusing on virtual training through concise video tutorials. I'm passionate about learning from those around me (as you'll find out if we chat), and oddly enough I find that training is one of the best ways to learn from others.

I often do presentations, in a large part because I enjoy the process of boiling down ideas into their most essential components. That same practice also draws me to usability and understanding the impact of simple, effective design. I'm a huge fan of improving productivity and getting the most out of life, be it through GTD, jogging or quiet contemplation. When I'm not plugging away at some venture or another, I write electronic and acoustic guitar music. I also once ran a relay across the USA.

If you have any questions, please send me an e-mail.
