Hello, I am {{ Alaa Haddad }}

$iAm = ["Drupal Developer", "Drupal Themer", "Drupal Consultant", "Drupal Architect"];

In Austin, TX USA

I grew up in a big city so early in my life, I developed a sense of awareness of what it means to be an adult in the real world. Since childhood, I've been attached to puzzles, sports and family.
I maintain the same interests today. For puzzles, I have my web development career, where debugging and puzzling things out is central. For sports, I train as a body builder. Family has always been important to me and now I have one of my own.

Brain Storming

Brain Storming

Always look for different exercises for your brain.

Very often people associate artistic tendencies with a distaste for ( or at least a lack of) order and other attributes normally associated with the sciences... I believe that everything you do in life is better served by thinking ahead and outside of the box, by being efficient and organized. There are numerous other adjectives that could be used, but they are all components of a certain way of life that I admire and strive for.

Website Development

Website Development

Client-side coding - Server-side coding - Database technology

Organization and creativity are not at all on opposite ends of a spectrum, but instead serve each other. I am constantly seeking to improve myself though the development of these attributes. Another very important aspect of my life is fitness, which you might expect to be relegated to the hobby section. Health is something of a higher priority to me and this is why: Your brain is the most important tool you will ever have. It is also connected to your physical self. Everyone knows that if you have a healthy body then your heart will last longer, you will sleep better, and that your joints and bones will not hurt you.

Website Design

Structures - Layouts - Colors - Graphics - Images - Typography - Content

What I have realized is that your brain, no matter how special, is no different than your knees or your heart in that it is a tangible part of you and benefits from your physical well being just as much as the rest of you does. I am always pushing myself to the gym, even in the lazy days. I don't give myself the option to cancel it.

Responsive Web Design (RWD)

Mobile Friendly - Adapt - Progressive Enhancement - Performance - Optimization

As far as hobbies go, I enjoy what I do during the day, so I spend much of my time doing "work" of my own at home. The obvious bonus is that I have free access to snacks, my choice of music. I consider the gym as a hoppy and I enjoy it.  It feels good to go to the gym.  I have been doing it for more than 25 years.  My gym days are organized and mixed up.  I mix my workout routine and I believe in light weight method.  I came to conclusion that I don't want to stop working out.  The safest way is to be patient.  It is like you are driving a car and you want to go from A to B.  You can speed to get there, but you might get in accident or you can just drive with the speed limit and you will get there without accident.
