Current Job

Though my day-to-day work is much less grand than the title suggests. I spend most of my time helping enterprise clients figure out how to turn a complex, creative idea into a secure and working system.

Because of my neurodivergence, my brain naturally looks for patterns. When a client hands over a massive project plan, I usually see the structural flaws and the parts that are going to break long before the build even begins. My job is to step in early and fix that underlying logic.

I apply this exact same thinking to building community within the WordPress ecosystem. Want to help build foundations that make sense, support the community and actually last.
