Stuart R. Email & Phone Number

Hello! My name is Stuart Rowlands, and I wrote my first line of code on a BBC Model B when I was 8 years old. I have had an interest in computing and all things technical from a very early age and my passion has only increased over the past 20+ years.I've had the opportunity to work on some incredibly challenging and rewarding projects : * govCMS, a Drupal distribution and framework for Australian Government agencies. * govCMS CKAN, a visualisation layer for Drupal that turns transparent data into beautiful visualisations * CMS Replacement Project (University of Queensland). I was the lead developer and architect on the heavily customised UQ-Drupal platform, which includes a unique stack involving interesting technologies (RIAK/Galera/SOLR) and many custom modules that make the worlds most powerful open source CMS even better. (see http://blog.firecannon.com/posts/drupal-south-2014-uq-drupal-case-study) * Centralised content sharing between Drupal sites (see http://blog.firecannon.com/posts/module-demo-central-things-manager)I'm also a co-founder of Madcore Sportswear, a successful custom apparel company operating out of Australia and the USA.

Listed skills include Drupal, Web Development, Apache, Open Source, and 32 others.
