Bio

Web Developer for DJA Online, based in East London. I’ve been working on WordPress for over 10 years and building websites for over 20 years.

Interests

Playing guitar, going to gigs, reading and being outdoors away from computers

WordPress Origin Story

Like lots of people, a project came along that needed something I couldn’t do with other tools, so I chose WordPress to do the job. That first website lasted 7 years before being replaced by a new developer.
