When and how did you get started with WordPress?
I learned basics of HTML while in Design School and started diving head first into web design. I found WP around 8 years ago while doing non-profit work. I was looking for great free solutions. I stumbled upon Joomla but then wanted something better- which lead me to find WP.
What resources do you turn to when you want to learn something new?
Google 😉
What is your favorite WordPress feature/aspect?
I love how you can customize and organize metadata so it can display beautifully on the front-end.
What is one thing you wish you knew about WordPress themes when you were getting started?
I wish I knew to not be intimidated. Once you understand the basics, it’s easy to catch on 🙂
What advice do you have for others looking to become WordPress experts?
Never stop learning. Always be curious as to why things work the way they do.
Bonus Question: What is one interesting non-WordPress-related fact about yourself?
I’m a visual artist. I love painting, drawing, and sculpture. 🙂
