Bio/Description

I love WordPress. I currently work as a web developer at Columbia University, and in my off-hours have my own business devoted just to WordPress. I’m frequently hacking plugins and dig through Core both for work and for my business.

I believe in making the user experience effortless, and I love working with designers that share that sentiment. With a beautiful front-end and a flexible and accessible back-end, websites shine.

I also blog about my insights with WordPress and coding. It helps me store what I learn as much as anything else, but maybe it can help others too!

Interests

Back-end programming, open source projects, digging into really complicated problems, design patterns, food, beer, exploring

WordPress Origin Story

I started working on WordPress as a user about seven years ago, and began working as a developer roughly three years ago (having worked in PHP for about 13 years before that).
