Bio

30 years ago I was teaching people how to play piano, now I teach people how to play WordPress! I’m a techie who speaks non-techie and my passion is helping beginners. I write YA/Fantasy novels, play the piano, and love to read. I also love animals, which is a good thing considering I have 3 cats, a rabbit and a dog.

WordPress Origin Story

I first fully embraced WordPress in 2012 when I converted my local community newspaper to be 100% digital. After that I became more involved with my local business community building WordPress websites for them and then subsequently teaching beginners online and via local workshops how to build their own website.
