Bio/Description

I’m a Senior Product Developer at Modern Tribe. I specialize in PHP and MySQL development with a focus on WordPress. I’m also the lead developer of the Pods Framework plugin – http://pods.io/

Interests

Spending time with my wife, my two daughters, playing music, working with WordPress, and helping out the open source community!

WordPress Origin Story

I was working with my own custom CMS when I got a job at an SEO place doing development and their CMS of choice was WordPress. The plugin and action/filter system was great and I was hooked! That was 2007, and it wasn’t long before I was releasing plugins and collaborating on open projects with people.
