    Bio

    I work at a travel and tourism marketing agency building WordPress websites (custom classic themes), along with doing independent work on the side building block themes.

    Interests

    Hiking, swimming, running, yoga, SUP, biking, camping… generally lots of outdoor stuff.

    While inside though I read, draw, game, and code games and on the web.

    WordPress Origin Story

    Although my profile says 2024, I actually started with WordPress in 2018.
    I have been developing custom classic themes since then for clients in the travel and tourism space.

    Lately I have been working more on personal projects and modern WordPress sites while trying to give more back to the community.

    Working for a travel and tourism marketing agency, I handled general maintenance and site upkeep and also led small development teams through site builds. The workflow focused on using a custom classic theme with ACF Flexible layouts with third party integrations and custom plugins.

    Now looking to work independently, I have been exploring and building with block themes.
