Garrett Coakley

I’ve been involved in web development since the early 1990s. Like many peers of a similar vintage, I fell into it more by luck than judgement after some friends asked me if I knew anything about “this web thing”.

Since those humble beginnings I’ve worked in most sectors of the industry including programming, project management and user interface development, with a recent focus on community management and user experience.

I currently work for Torchbox as part of the Drupal team on projects for non-profit and charitable clients.

When I’m not playing guitar, I listen to a hell of a lot of music and attempt to take photographs with a DSLR and a range of very old film cameras. I stand 5′ 9″ in my socks and have an affinity for Guinness.

I don’t look anything like Zebedee in real life, just in case you were wondering.
