I’m a Principal Software Engineer at Bluehost, a WordPress Core Committer, and a leader in Open Source. I care deeply about purposeful user experiences, collaborative communities, advocacy for Open Source contributors, the open web, and a well-placed two-seam fastball.

While I’m a PHP developer at heart, but I’m fluent in many languages and technologies with have over 2 decades of experience building software and the web.

I’ve been contributing to WordPress Core since 2013, and became a Core committer in 2018. Over the years, I’ve helped shape dozens of WordPress releases and worked on everything from bug fixes to large-scale infrastructure improvements.

I’m very fortunate to be employed by Bluehost as a full-time contributor to the WordPress project through the Five for the Future program, which allows me to focus on building reliable tools, improving collaboration workflows, and ensuring that WordPress continues to thrive for the tens of millions of people that rely on the software around the world.

I also frequently speak at local meetups and international WordCamps, and occasionally appear on podcasts related to my work.
