WordPress Engineer at Human Made. My relationship with technology and programming is not merely professional—it’s visceral. My journey with this transformative field began in childhood, driven by a deep fascination for problem-solving and the vast potential that technology held. Now, with over 20 years of experience in web application development and team leadership, I remain passionate about using technology to make a global impact. My connection with WordPress goes beyond its function as a platform, although it’s an awesome product. I view it as a tool for democratizing publishing, nurturing a vibrant and most relevant opensource community, and generating opportunities for people everywhere. I’m a intense advocate of free software, reflecting my belief in the power of collaboration, cooperation, and collective well-being. My dream is of a society where technology serves as a platform for growth and prosperity, and where respect for our environment is paramount. This aspiration drives my work and is the foundation of my commitment to making a positive impact through technology.
