Bio

Hi, folks! Welcome to the amazing world of Guga Alves.

I’m a Happiness Engineer at Automattic since November 2015. Before that, I used to work as a web developer and project manager in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

I’m the founder of TudoParaWP.com.br, a site about WordPress created in 2008 that help many brazilian WP developers. Since most of them don’t speak English, my primary focus is to share my WordPress experience and knowledge and spread Open Source spirit in my country, but also

I’m also a WordCamp Organizer (WordCamp RJ 2014 and 2015) and WordPress RJ meetups collaborator, having helped to organise 20 meetups. I speak in WordCamp Porto Alegre 2013, WordCamp BH 2014 and 2015, WordCamp SP 2013 and 2014, WordCamp Fortaleza 2016 and WordCamp Florianópolis 2018.

Nowadays, my main focus is to help people to understand how to use well WordPress, helping the brazilian WordPress community to grow and improve knowledge about this fantastic content management system.

Interests

– See smiles on people’s faces when I help then.
– Share the open source culture.
– Help social projects of Rotary International.
– Learn and share.
– Travel and play sports.

WordPress Origin Story

I’ve started studying WordPress in 2007. At that time, I was just a computer support guy, but fell in love with WordPress and dedicated myself to study more PHP to specialize in WordPress. In the same year, I created the TudoParaWP, site which today is one of the best known on WordPress in Brazil, and thus daily work developing sites in WordPress and answering questions about WP to the Brazilian community in the official forum, social networking, and events.

Also, I collaborate translating WordPress to PT-BR in each new version of this beloved CMS.
