Based in the UK, I contribute to BuddyPress in a variety of ways and enjoy speaking about BuddyPress. I consult on BP-related projects and create custom plugins for your site; contact me at paul@byotos.com.
You can usually find me moderating the BuddyPress.org forums, in #buddypress-dev on freenode, or on twitter as "pgibbs".

In your theme/child theme, you just need to add new widget areas in, same as any regular WordPress theme. I’m not a theme expert but have a look at http://www.themelab.com/2008/04/18/see-how-easy-it-is-to-widgetize-wordpress-themes/ under ”Multiple Widget Ready Areas”
