    Bio

    I am a family man. I am married to my very best friend, and we have been blessed with 6 wonderful children. My two loves in life are family and technology. I work primarily in Big Data and product development. I love public speaking and have done various presentations in my years. I have consulted for many companies across the world in, and out of, WordPress.

    I am fluent in all areas of the dev process including, but not limited to, full-stack, programming, data engineering, and architecting.

    WordPress Origin Story

    Way back when, I wanted to build themes. I found a boostrap-based theme called Shoestrap. It used SMOF (smart option framework) as the option framework. Over time I became a core contributor, but I found SMOF to not be powerful enough for what I wanted to do. So I looked around, and found NHP. Great code, but not as pretty as SMOF. I looked at every framework, and was dissatisfied. So, I made my own, SimpleOptions.

    Eventually @ghost1227 approached me. He ran Redux Framework, which was a fork of NHP. He was so impressed with my code, he suggested we merge. I saw his brand (it was good) and his user base (200 devs), so I said why not.

    Thus Redux 3.0 was formed from my SimpleOptions code. @ghost1227 has since left the project, but he is the reason Redux has its name.

    Redux has now grown to an obscene amount of users and I couldn’t be happier.
