I’m Kaleem, a
Drupal Front-End Web Developer

I am a husband, father, front-end web developer, designer, Drupal evangelist and entrepreneur from Bangor, Maine who currently calls Atlanta home.

My story

I got started in 1998 when my band needed a website to promote our local shows. It started with Photoshop and Dreamweaver until I became obsessed with learning basic graphic design, HTML and CSS. For the next 10 years I continued developing static websites for small businesses, friends and family.

Drupal History

In 2008, I was introduced to Drupal 6 after a request to build a website that was password protected. To help expedite the learning curve I read books, watched online tutorials and attended the monthly Atlanta Drupal User Group meetings. I have also attended some popular Drupal conferences such as: DrupalCamp Atlanta, DrupalCamp Charlotte, DrupalCamp Florida, Design4Drupal, BADCamp, Drupalcon Denver, DrupalCon Nashville.

DrupalCamp Atlanta Project Lead Since it's inception in 2009, DrupalCamp Atlanta (DCATL) has been the staple Drupal event in the southeast attracting high-profile speakers, business leaders, sponsors and Drupal enthusiasts from all skill levels with attendance reaching over 450. With over a decade of event/conference planning experience, in June 2014, I volunteered to help produce DrupalCamp Atlanta and was elected the project lead.
