Jody Hamilton on founding an agency, and life beyond Drupal - 20 Years Series - Tag1 Team Talk

As Drupal adoption significantly increased in the mid-2000s, a number of agencies formed to professionally support client needs around the creation of Drupal websites. One of these agencies was Zivtech, co-founded by Jody Hamilton and AlexUA. Before Zivtech, Jody was a freelance developer in the early days of Drupal, and as a company founder, helped grow Zivtech into the dominant Drupal development company in the Philadelphia area. As part of our 20 years of Drupal series of Tag1 Team Talks, Managing Director Michael Meyers talks with Jody about her long experience from an intern, to developer, then to agency co-owner. They also get into Jody’s career evolution, including her move from Drupal business owner to Senior Digital Business Analyst at Renesas Electronics. Join us today to learn more about Jody’s experience, and where she thinks Drupal should go next.
