Admit it! You want to know who and what we are.
Jerad Bitner
Jerad has been using Drupal since the nightmare upgrades from 4.6 to 4.7 (that's early 2005, if you're asking). He started out as a Technical Illustrator with C/S Group and worked for three years with Photoshop, Illustrator, AutoCad and Macromedia products as well as PHP. When it came time to replicate a platform across the different locations of the company, Jerad found Drupal and hasn't looked back since.
Shortly after attending a Lullabot workshop in 2006, Jerad got snatched up by Sony Music where he worked on their artist platform, creating a central system to roll out sites for artists such as Britney Spears, Jennifer Lopez, and Ozzy Ozborne and helping to build Sony's video portal, MyPlay.com. Jerad later ended up at LifeTime Digital before starting his own development company, Rapid Waters Development.
With a handful of modules and thousands of other contributions to Drupal, Jerad has gained many friends and an excellent standing within the community. He enjoys participating with the community and helping out in any way he can, but enjoys learning most of all.
In 2010, Jerad came full circle when Lullabot acquired Rapid Waters. He now is a lead developer for Lullabot, working on both client sites such as IgniteShow.com and Grammy 365 and maintaining and upgrading the Lullabot's own sites. Jerad is also part of Lullabot's training staff, spreading Drupal knowledge across the globe.
Jerad is very proud of his Drupal success story, but he also attributes his success to the wonderful people he's gotten to work with throughout his career. Being a part of these awesome teams has helped lead him to where he is today.
