Pantheon is a great company with great product. They make hosting Drupal sites easy, and you can try out their service for free. I've enjoyed watching their company grow, and they make great contributions to Drupal overall.

Commerce Guys is a great company with a great product. We make getting started selling online with Drupal a breeze, and I've had a blast being part of the products team responsible for Commerce Kickstart.

Yesterday was a happy day for me because Commerce Kickstart is now available on Pantheon. Great + Great = Even Greater, so if you want to try Commerce Kickstart directly on a premiere hosting service, it's never been easier to do so. Go ahead and try it out!

My Role at Commerce Guys

Today marks a new phase for me; I have joined the Commerce Guys as Director of Product Operations. This role will see me working closely with the product development, sales, business development, and marketing teams to create and bring to market a product lineup focused on Drupal Commerce, and eCommerce in general.

The four years I spent at Acquia have been nothing short of spectacular. I had the great fortune of doing a bit of everything; engineering, support, documentation, professional services, sales, evangelism, and even music consulting (I provided the tracks that played on our phone system for many years). To Dries and the entire team, a big Thank You!

The Commerce Guys have always held a special place in my heart. I was fortunate to lend a hand in their early development, and I've been a member of their Advisory Board for three years. Now I'm eager to step in and help make Commerce a key asset in Drupal's success.
