Christian Droulers is a young and dynamic software developer who started programming in college and has not stopped since. Always on the lookout for interesting techniques and new patterns to apply in his everyday work, he's passionate about beautiful, clean, and efficient code.

He started his career developing key software applications for SherWeb, a renowned Microsoft hosting partner. Christian's passion and ability to decompose systems effectively led him to a software architect role, where he oversaw the complete rewrite of SherWeb's main application with asynchronous messaging, distributed systems, and recent frontend technologies.

Christian enjoys new challenges. In 2012, he joined up with three friends and cofounded Invup, a start-up aiming to help organizations track and quantify philanthropy.
