My background and history with Drupal:
I started my Drupal journey in 2006 with Drupal 4.3, and it's been the foundation of my career ever since. For nearly two decades, Drupal has been my bread and butter, so I have a genuine interest in seeing it continue to grow and succeed.
What I love most about Drupal isn't just the code—it's the philosophy behind it and the community that brings it to life. I make a point of giving back by volunteering whenever I can, and over the past several years I've volunteered and spoken at multiple DrupalCons and DrupalSouth events.
Before moving to Australia, I was an active member of the Indian Drupal community as a developer, speaker, trainer, and mentor. Giving back has always been an important part of my Drupal journey, and it's something I intend to keep doing for years to come.
Why I'm running as a candidate:
I’m running because I would like to take a more active role in the DrupalSouth community and assist in shaping the future of the event.
I would like to help in creating an experience that is inclusive, useful and engaging for attendees, speakers, volunteers and sponsors, as well as in finding new ways to develop and strengthen the local Drupal community.
Most important of all, I would like to give something back to the community which I care about a great deal and assist in making DrupalSouth even better.
Why you should vote for me:
I have been involved in the Drupal community for nearly 20 years and have always carried on by contributing, offering my time, sharing knowledge and helping out other members of the community.
I will take my long-term commitment together with a cooperative and practical attitude to the DrupalSouth committee. Since I really care about the community, my dedication will be to ensuring that DrupalSouth becomes an event which continues to grow, develop and bring people together.
