    Bio

    Chief Developer at Press Wizards®, a WordPress hosting and design agency, and at 5 Star Plugins, a premiere creator of WordPress plugins worthy of 5 Stars!

    Interests

    WordPress Hosting, Performance, Security. I love futuristic movies, shows, and books, the cyberpunk genre, electric cars, home automation, good food, and generous kind people.

    WordPress Origin Story

    I started building websites in 1996, and selling web hosting in 1997, and ever since, have loved the idea of telling stories of people and businesses that anyone could access anytime from anywhere. Coming from an enterprise IT and Microsoft certified professional background, I learned how to “code” a dynamic website in ASP using SQL Server… but when WordPress came along, I never looked back! It was this amazing community and an awesome extendable framework for building anything and everything, in an easy beginner-level way, with room to never outgrow it.

    Today I write my own plugins and sell them to others in the hope of providing easy to use focused functionality that they can rely on, and continue to crave using WordPress in as many ways as possible.
