Bio

I am a WP Developer

Interests

Writing Custom Plugins and Themes.
Encouraging WordPress for Public Media companies and other non-profits.

WordPress Origin Story

I first got involved with WordPress back in 2007. I was sold!

Back then I’ve built my first platform, for a company I worked for in the past, that auto installed WordPress on 10,000 customer accounts using WHM + WHMCS and my own functions.

So I guess you might ask if I may have contributed to the boom of WordPress? Dunno :).

After that, I ranked up on Experts Exchange to Master in WordPress, having helped thousands of user with their WordPress issues.

I have spoken and taught at many WordCamps and other conferences. And have built many custom platforms using WordPress, as well as plugins, for Public Media stations and other non-profit and profit companies.
