About me
I’m a maintaining the entity system and am also heavily involved in many other components, including the caching API. I also maintain the redis cache backend and many other contributed projects. At MD Systems, we have 3 years experience building Drupal 8 sites and launched our first production sites when Drupal 8 was still in alpha.
