I'm an experienced, UK based Drupal developer, with over three years experience building and theming Drupal websites. I've used it as the platform for everything from community websites through to a large social networking platform.
There are so many ways of achieving the same object in Drupal, the skill is knowing the most efficient way of doing it. I've used many of the modules and experimented with even more of them, using both released modules and ones from the repository. And I also make sure I keep up to date with new Drupal developments and other developer's Drupal solutions.
I've written many custom modules, for many different clients. Some clients have very kindly allowed these to be released to the Drupal community. You can view and download my Drupal Modules from Drupal.org.
Theming Drupal is probably the hardest task of building a Drupal based website. Getting a handle on where to change the HTML is often complex, but like everything, it just takes practice. Building on me experience, I can theme a Drupal installation so it looks exactly like the designer's specification, with the minimum amount of coding.
Drupal optimisation is vital for any live Drupal site - slow load speeds is the curse of many a Drupal based website. There are many different techniques for speeding up Drupal, some more suited to some websites than others.
