I’m a full-time sponsored contributor on the open source WordPress project and a Design Director at Automattic, where I co-lead the open source design team. My team and I regularly contribute to the UX/UI of the product as individual contributors, and I often play a role on the design side of major WordPress releases.
The impact of the work we do on WordPress is always humbling ā Iām so proud to be helping build the open web with the passionate community of brilliant folks who contribute to the project.
