    Bio

    Hello, I’m Kenny Eliason, a seasoned web developer and tech enthusiast based in Las Vegas. With a decade of experience running NeonBrand, a marketing agency, I’ve built hundreds of websites, honing my skills in various programming languages and web technologies. My journey in the tech industry has been largely self-taught, driven by a relentless curiosity and a passion for problem-solving.

    Today, I serve as the CEO of RECORD (www.getrecord.com), a legal tech startup revolutionizing the personal injury industry. I’m deeply involved in leveraging technology to improve case handling, creating innovative solutions that streamline processes and enhance client experiences.

    When I’m not immersed in code or strategizing for Record, I enjoy off-roading, Onewheel riding, and downhill mountain biking. These hobbies, much like programming, offer a blend of challenge and creativity that I find incredibly fulfilling.

    I’m a firm believer in continuous learning and growth, and I’m always on the lookout for the next exciting development in the tech world. Whether it’s a new programming language, a groundbreaking algorithm, or a novel application of technology, I’m eager to explore it and see how it can be harnessed to drive further innovation.

    Interests

    Web Development, WordPress, Roots Development, Legal Tech Innovation, Off-Roading, Onewheel Riding, Downhill Mountain Biking, Continuous Learning, Technology Applications, Entrepreneurship, Marketing, Personal Injury Law

    WordPress Origin Story

    My journey with WordPress began back in 2008, when I built a website for my family’s trampoline entertainment company, FLIPnOUT. As a self-taught web developer, I was drawn to WordPress for its user-friendly interface and the flexibility it offered. The platform allowed me to create a dynamic, engaging online presence for FLIPnOUT, and I was hooked.

    In 2016, my WordPress journey took a significant turn when I discovered Roots, a suite of tools for modern WordPress development. Roots resonated with my commitment to clean, maintainable code and efficient development practices. I quickly became an avid supporter, and since then, I’ve built numerous sites using Roots, appreciating how it enhances the WordPress development experience.

    Over the years, I’ve seen WordPress evolve and grow, and I’ve grown along with it. I’ve built hundreds of websites, each one a testament to the versatility and power of WordPress. From small businesses to large corporations, I’ve used WordPress to help them tell their stories, reach their audiences, and achieve their goals.

    Today, as the CEO of Record, a legal tech startup, I continue to rely on WordPress. We use WordPress via the API to run our blog on our Gatsby marketing site, a testament to the platform’s adaptability and enduring relevance in the ever-changing landscape of web development.

    My WordPress origin story is one of exploration, growth, and innovation. It’s a story that continues to unfold as I discover new ways to leverage this incredible platform in my ongoing quest to revolutionize the personal injury industry through technology.
