WordPress Origin Story

Started in 1991 with barebones HTML on Cal State University servers creating web pages for faculty. Went full-time web in 1996 and by 1998 was working more in classic ASP, then C#.Net (especially Telerik Sitefinity) for client sites and projects (even DotNetNuke). In the mid 2000’s a client asked for help with his WordPress blog and I discovered the world’s BEST CMS and moved all my clients off Sitefinity and on to WordPress.
