Bio

Experienced senior software developer and entrepreneur.

Building 🚀 Metorik with one of the best teams in the world

WordPress Origin Story

I got into WordPress around the release of version 2.1 in 2007. At the time (and to this day), WP felt like a revolutionary platform that enabled easy content management. You mean I didn’t have to code every individual page by hand anymore?

WordPress inspired me to make a career on the web and has powered countless projects I’ve worked on over the past 17 years, including many client sites, several businesses, a stint working at Automattic and more recently with the team at Metorik 🙂
