Bio

I’ve been designing themes for WordPress and templates for Joomla for over 15 years! I work from a home studio while living in a log house where I can look out into the forest. I’m addicted to iced caramel coffees, with no end in sight!

WordPress Origin Story

After working with Joomla for more than 6 years, I finally took a plunge into the world of WordPress. It’s been several years now and I am still going strong with it…including the design and development of WordPress themes. Overall, I have 12+ years with Joomla and 8+ with WordPress.
