James Sansbury

James has been working with Drupal since version 4.5, back when installing a module required manual copy/paste of SQL statements into a MySQL server. After working as the Drupal developer for Sprocket, a web design agency based in metro Atlanta, James was hired as a part-time Drupal trainer for Lullabot, then as a developer, senior developer, and then architect—all for some of the world's biggest brands. James has worked on large data migrations for The Recording Academy, engaging editorial experiences for MSNBC, and helped create a fast and stable development and deployment process for Cisco's Support Forum. He architected a decoupled user experience for Martha Stewart, and a continuous integration and deployment process for Intel, which later became Tugboat.

In his role as Director of Product for Tugboat, James leverages his years of experience as a technical architect for Lullabot to support SLED with their digital platforms.
