Decoupled Drupal in Practice: The comprehensive guide to decoupled Drupal across the stack.

Hi! I'm Preston.

I work, speak, and write on topics like Gatsby, decoupled Drupal, the decentralized web, conversational design, and the future of content.

I ran an innovation lab.

I launched Acquia Labs, an innovation lab at Acquia, the open-source digital experience company, where I also did product strategy and developer evangelism.
