    Bio

    I currently work as a database architect for a privately owned bank based in Oklahoma City, build trading algos, and manage Trade For Me, LLC. In a previous life I was a professional musician, university music professor, and full stack web developer. From 2014 – 2020 I served as Sr. Web Applications Administrator for one of the top public regional universities in the Oklahoma City metro. I’m also the author of Modern Guitar Method: A Practical Approach.

    Interests

    Music, cooking, slinging code

    WordPress Origin Story

    I got involved with WordPress at my first web development job many years ago. We built custom themes and plugins for clients around the Oklahoma City metro. The parent company contracted us to build websites for hotels & casinos in Las Vegas. It was a fun gig and we cranked out a LOT of good stuff!
