Box O' Rox

Well it’s a official. I’m no longer an aspiring freelancer, I am now a full fledged freelance web developer. Last Friday I signed my first contract to develop a website as an independent contractor. All in all I’m very excited, in addition to opening the door to a brand new revenue stream (love dat money!) I’m also getting to dive head first into building a custom site using the Drupal CMS. I’m also getting to help some friends out by making them sub contractors on the project and get the pleasure of working with people I trust and admire. I’m sure this is the honeymoon period between the contract getting signed and the first dead lines on deliverables but so far I’m very pleased with how the client communicates and I think we’ll be delivering something which exceeds their expectations.

In taking my first steps into a larger world I’d like to start by saying thanks to all the people how have given me a chance to get here and to move forward in my professional career. I’m looking forward to this whole freelancing thing. The problems are new and challenging and it will give me a chance to improve and add to my skill set. It’ll be a big day when I get to add the first piece to my portfolio but until then please pardon the dust as I work on improving this site.
