Bio

I use WordPress on the daily to build websites for clients. I design, I code, and I eat lots of tacos and burritos. Oh, and I drink lots of Dr. Pepper.

When I’m not working with WordPress, I’m either fly fishing, snowboarding, or hanging out with my wife.

WordPress Origin Story

I worked as a content writer for a web hosting company and I was assigned to write some blog posts about WordPress. I did some research on it, got interested, and started building websites. Pretty soon after that, I started looking into WordPress development and learned how to code. I still use WordPress as my default go-to platform when looking to build just about any type of website.
