    Bio

    Senior Manager UX Research/Design at Pantheon, I like to contribute to *making* it when I can.

    WordPress Origin Story

    My career started in Fine Art and as a professional time-arts/illustrator/artists/photographer. “Way back then”, I needed a to get my portfolio online and that is how I started with open source and WordPress. I found a resource and community where I could not only empower myself but build a career helping others with their total web presence. I was fortunate to have mentors and community all along the way as I rode the wave from analog through the digital evolution. I work hard to do great UX research and design work while training and empowering others with our resources. Here is my HeroPress Essay: https://heropress.com/essays/the-year-i-got-cancer-was-the-year-my-wordpress-business-took-off/
