About Me

My name is Michelle Cox and I'm a full time mom and very part time Drupal freelancer. I have been using Drupal since May of 2005 to build hobby sites and started doing a little bit of paid work last September. My children keep me quite busy so my computer time is limited and sporadic. Therefore any jobs I take on must be short and/or have very flexible deadlines.

My strongest point is setting up Drupal sites and knowing what modules to use to achieve the desired functionality but I am also intently learning Drupal internals and improving my coding skills. While I am able to do some theming, that is my weakest area, especially dealing with CSS layout and IE quirks.

Some examples of my Drupal sites:

Coulee Region Online is a community portal site for my area. This is where all my free time goes these days. You can read more about what I'm doing in Site recipe: Building a community portal. If you want to look at it from a user's point of view, please use the development site and don't make test accounts on my live site.
La Crosse Area Camera Club: Photography is my other hobby. I am the secretary and webmaster of our local camera club. It's still in 4.7 but may be of interest to anyone looking for an example of integration with Gallery 2
MOMS Club of Holmen: MOMS Club is a wonderful organization for stay at home moms. When I joined in 2005, I discovered they didn't have a website. Unfortunately, restrictions from the parent organization make it impossible to do a full featured site as I'd like. But I was still able to do a brochure site with some limited interactivity for members. The theme is a heavily modified port of an OSWD theme.

My contributed modules:

If you have questions on anything I write on this site, please use the support forum. (No log in needed) I try to answer as much as I can but I do have limited computer time and my own projects to work on so it can sometimes take me a long time to respond. If you see anything you can answer on there, feel free to help out. :) If you have general Drupal questions, please use Drupal's support options.

At this time, I am totally booked on freelance work, sorry.
