My knowledge of Drupal surpasses many "Drupal Expert" and PHP Developer. Majority of my previous clients say the same thing about me: "What would take someone else 8 hours to implement, has taken you only 2".
On most job proposal, it hard to express my level of expertise. However brief, I recommend you interview me, to give me a chance to make you feel comfortable choosing me over others.
Majority of my work comes from referrals outside of Upwork/Elance, so do not the lack of work history deter you.
