Bio

Professionally, I live and breath WordPress. Soft-core coder. Designer. Theme wrangler. Simple plugins. ACF-lover.

WordPress Origin Story

I stumbled upon WordPress when someone asked me to set up a blog for them nine years ago. I fell in love very quickly. I’ve since made over 400 custom WordPress sites.
