The following is a list of some of the things I'm currently working on. Some of these items are out in the open, some are currently still in planning, some are still completely conceptual. These are projects I'm working on in my spare time as time allows, and things I want to be able to give back to the Drupal community in one way or another.

The Omega theme
The Omega theme is my base theme, currently released in an Alpha state on Drupal.org. The Omega theme was something I decided to work on starting back in June after the first Design4Drupal camp, and after years of working with themes that never quite made me happy. I've pulled features from tons of the most popular themes in the Drupal community, and developed in my own ideas and concepts of what would be the "perfect" base theme for all my Drupal projects.
The Omega theme is based on the 960.gs, and incorporates many advanced features including a very intense theme settings interface with still many, many more features to be implemented prior to an official non alpha/beta release. I recently presented on the Omega theme at DrupalCamp Montreal. You can find information on the presentation, including slides here.
Design4Drupal 2010
I have show my interest in the Design4Drupal community since attending the first camp in Boston in June, 2009. I have been speaking with Susan MacPhee since that event, and for the 2010 event scheduled for June of 2010, I will be taking the responsibility of developing and managing the development of the site, and ensuring we have a fantastic camp site that is up and running well before the camp dates are official.
Project: DrupalCamp
I recently brought up this idea at a Boston Drupal Group meetup. The meetup was recorded, and a video of my idea can be found in this post. The idea is quite simple. Taking the legwork done by the folks from This by Them for the DrupalCamp L.A. site, the concept will be to use that as a base, and build out a site using Multisite and Domain Access to allow camp organizers to quickly set up a camp site that is functional, and beautiful in just a few clicks. I think this will greatly benefit the community since so many of the weekend DrupalCamps have great problems getting the time together to invest in creating a new camp site, or even using the pre-existing base provided by This by Them.
ThemeGeeks
ThemeGeeks is a project I have had in my head for well over a year now, but never quite had the time to complete my vision. ThemeGeeks will be a premium theme shop with fantastic pre-built themes that are ready out of the box for many sites. This is a similar concept to the wonderful guys at Top Notch Themes.
Omega Sub-Themes (TG MediaCart, TG Blog & TG Portfolio)
The TG MediaCart theme will be a premium theme with heavy Ubercart styling built in for a great out of the box e-commerce experience. The TG Portfolio theme will be a premium theme for any type of portfolio site including Web Designers/Developers and/org Photographers to showcase their work. Both of these themes are based on the Omega theme, and currenly under development.
Just after finishing this post today, I decided to slap together a quick photoshop layout for another TG theme, which will be a simple, clean blog template known as TG Blog.
