WordPress Origin Story

I started out doing software support, training, television, content development, and trade shows in 2001 for a small yet global company. In 2004 I was blogging software tips, magazine articles, and trade show news but outgrew our CMS and switched over to WordPress in 2008. By 2012, I was working at Automattic and have been there ever since.
