    Bio

    Over the past 2 decades, I’ve worked with leading brands, startups, and everyone in between to develop innovative, highly interactive, feature-rich websites and web apps.

    I’m becoming more active in the WordPress development scene through open-source plugins and as being a guest speaker at Rhode Island and New England Area area events such as WordCamps and meet-ups.

    I’m President and Loud Mouth at Linchpin. A full-service digital agency based in little Rhody. You can see some of our work at https://linchpin.com

    WordPress Origin Story

    I’ve been using WordPress since right around 2.2 release. My first jump into WordPress utilized WordPress and separate custom PHP (I didn’t really know plugin development yet) to create XML feeds that loaded into a Flash Website. I was using WordPress to control website colors, pages and link/menus. Since then I have been involved in Enterprise level implementations and plugin development for fortune 100s, Online Publications, Small Businesses and Startups.
