    Bio

    WordPress pioneer, developer-turned-founder, and community builder. Since 2012, I’ve been a constant face in the WordPress world, moving from team lead and project manager to my current role as a dedicated entrepreneur.

    I don’t just use open source; I champion it. I’m passionate about giving back and fostering a collaborative environment that’s inclusive for everyone, worldwide. My secret to staying creative? Unplugging to explore new horizons and striking up conversations with new people across the globe.
