Bio

I’ve been involved with web stuff since 1999 and been doing it ever since. I enjoy creating with code.

Interests

Warhammer 40K, it’s my addiction. Also reading. Love reading.

WordPress Origin Story

I started my first WordPress site as a way to sell my miniature commission painting services. It was simple, but it did the trick. That site evolved into a full blown blog about Warhammer 40K, and I began creating other sites using WordPress after.

I’ve been using WordPress since that day in 2009 and I haven’t looked back since.
