About the Reviewers

An avid user of the Drupal framework since 2006, Joel "Senpai" Farris is highly active in the Drupal Community as a Document Maintainer, Patch Tester, core and contributed modules Patch Creator, and an expert in the support of and care for new Drupalites.

Under the monicker Senpai (http://groups.drupal.org/user/4009), Joel co-led the charge for the Drupal Dojo training sessions (http://drupaldojo.net) for over a year, and was joined in that endeavor by some of the community's most famous personas, including Josh Koenig (http://groups.drupal.org/user/429) of Chapter 3, LLC (http://www.chapterthree.com), Addison Berry (http://groups.drupal.org/user/1607) of Lullabot (http://www.lullabot.com), Squidster (http://groups.drupal.org/user/3763), Dmitri Gaskin (http://groups.drupal.org/user/1322), and many, many others who gave freely of their time so that all people could learn ninja Drupal tactics in a cutting-edge and edifying environment.

Joel currently functions as the Chief Operations Officer for the new San Diego WorkHabit offices, and is passionate about any opportunity to get the company's staff involved in outreach operations. He is responsible for implementing and maintaining the WorkHabit Community Fridays, in which qualified individuals take an entire payday to work on one selected core or contrib patch in order to further Drupal's progress.
