Jeremy Andrews has been a core Drupal contributer since early 2002, when he was originally introduced to the project by its creator. His hobby web page, KernelTrap.org, was the first online community to push Drupal to scale beyond its modest beginnings and to achieve popular recognition as a competitive CMS solution [1]. He has worked to improve Drupal's caching layer, optimized Drupal's bootstrap process, improved core Drupal queries, focused on improving Drupal's overall performance, and written core modules that are still included with every single copy of Drupal. He has given seminars on Drupal performance and scalability, both in person [2] and over the Internet [3].

Jeremy formed Tag1 Consulting, Inc in 2007, a successful consulting company that focuses on Drupal performance and scalability [4], recognized by Drupal's creator as being among the very best at what they do [5].
