Developing both front and back-end for the last 8 years striving to make the client’s user experience as friendly as the end user’s. WordCamp Brighton 2017 co-organiser, WordUp Brighton co-organiser. Outside of that, I’m a post-graduate in Broadcast Journalism with a keen interest in Go Pro cameras and attaching them to pretty much anything and everything that moves.

WordPress Origin Story

Initially started as a web dev by making HTML templates from Photoshop documents, and then passing them across to a developer to hook WordPress in. Eventually it became quicker and easier to do that myself and just leave the more complicated bits for the developers. Over the course of a few months this led to me lead deving on some small projects and the rest is history.

Created a new ticket, #2844, in Meta Trac:
