Bio

I am Benjamin Lu, a computer technician by day and a freelance web designer by night. I have been hooked on web developing since 2000 and started teaching myself the bsic of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, XML, and PHP. I am extremely a fanatic when it comes to WordPress and have develop many themes for free within the WordPress.org community.

Interests

Learning New Things, Facebook, Instagram, PHP, JavaScript, CSS, WordPress, Food, Hanging out with my 20 month old son.

WordPress Origin Story

I graduated from ITT Technical Institute and received an Associates Degree in Computers and Electronics Engineering Technology and a Bachelors Degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering Technology. During the time at ITT Technical Institute, started working as a Help Desk Engineer with Accent Computer Solutions and Tech Rockstars former known as (Price Enterprise), helping customers/clients with every day computer solutions.

After attending at ITT Technical, I started experimenting with WordPress.com at first and realized that WordPress.org can be used to create and modify websites for free. During that time experimenting with WordPress, I have learned as much as possible about PHP, CSS, HTML and JavaScript and am able to create a website or blog with these tools.
