Jeffrey A. McGuire

Jeffrey, aka “jam” is a Senior Writer and Evangelist, Acquia Inc.

Jeffrey (known to all except his mother as "jam") has been involved in the Drupal project since 2006. He combined a budding career in Drupal consulting with a decade of experience in translation, journalism and technical writing when he took on his position at Acquia in 2008.

He finds applying his hard-won experience as a writer to documenting and explaining Drupal and Acquia’s products a constant challenge and source of inspiration.

Acquia’s roots and involvement in the Drupal community are also a perfect match for his background and abiding commitment to the ethos and emerging economy around free and open source software.

Before joining Acquia, he was a Drupal consultant and a technical editor of Using Drupal

He is a fluent German, Italian and English speaker, and a musician.
