Bio

I’m a semi-retired software engineer with over 34+ years in tech.

I’m an expert WooCommerce & WordPress developer. I am a former core contributor to WordPress & WooCommerce. I thoroughly enjoy helping people learn both frameworks, as well as teaching others to code and help them achieve their ultimate goals online.

I speak several languages fluently: French, Spanish, German and Japanese. I can also speak a little Polish, but not that great. I’m an avid surfer and have been surfing for over 50 years.

Interests

Surfing, Jeopardy, Traveling, Crossword Puzzles and Cooking.

WordPress Origin Story

I’ve been working in WordPress since day one. That’s it.
