Bio
I’m a computer engineer who works mainly as a WordPress back-end*er* and consultant. I have worked for over 10 years creating websites, themes and plugins, planning and developing customized solutions for their needs, aligning development teams, convincing them to not open a PHP declaration with just <? and giving WordPress’s touch of pink to my clients.
WordPress Origin Story
While studying, around 2009, I started collaborating with an online media about public transport and sustainable mobility, at that moment I was both journalist and the IT guy. They installed WordPress one month before I joined because it was something they could do. As the medium grew up, we had challenges related to hosting, WPO, SEO, WP Multisite, Multi language and I learned to face them step by step. I started to love WP, some friends already loved it and I joined them at WordCamp Seville 2012. That’s where everything begun.
