    Bio

    Nick has a degree in Multimedia Design and over 20 years of experience working in web development and digital media. In his career he’s built or rebuilt just about every kind of website, including many content management systems (before WordPress), several custom e-commerce systems, and hundreds of websites.

    Widely regarded as an expert developer, Nick is sought after as a speaker at many conferences across the country. He remembers spacer gifs, table layouts, font-face, and when Flash was the new kid on the block. He specializes in custom Genesis websites, bespoke plugins that teach WordPress new tricks, and architecting amazing and brilliant application solutions.

    WordPress Origin Story
