41-year old web designer from Jokkmokk, northern Sweden.
WordPress Origin Story
I’ve built websites since 1997, and in the early 2000’s I started experimenting with content management systems. After fiddling with different systems, I ended up finding WordPress (which was then at version 1.2) and found it to be just what I was looking for. Despite trying out many other scripts, systems and site engines in the following years, I kept coming back to WordPress. In 2005 I started building themes, and ended up getting two of my designs on wordpress.com. Today, I’m working more with content than design. But I am still building websites using WordPress occationally.
