    Bio

    Hi! I’m Taco and yes, that really really is my given name. I’m married to the most amazing wife and proud father to two amazing daughters.
    At Yoast, I was introduced to the lovely WordPress community. Now, I’m enjoying more time in the community at Emilia! Outside of work, I love to ride my trials bikes and organize LAN parties (computer events).
