| About Me | WordPress Developer. Bible Teacher. Navigator. I spent ten years developing WordPress sites, as both a freelancer and part of a rapidly growing agency, before moving to Scotland as a missionary for a number of years. Ministry has been my primary focus since returning to the States, though I do keep my hand in the WordPress world while providing services for for a select number of clients. |

| WordPress Origin Story | My hobby got out of hand. I started blogging originally because I wanted to be a writer. I figured if I put it online someone might read it and that was just enough accountability for me to get in the habit of writing regularly. In the process of fiddling with my own website I found I had an inner geek that I didn’t know was there, which led to helping other folks with their sites. Eventually it got to the point where I was spending about all my non-working hours in front of the computer. That’s about the time my wife said I needed to figure out a way to get paid for this website stuff or find another hobby because it wasn’t working for her. So I started freelancing WordPress work in 2007 and it quickly became my full time gig. Working with WordPress full time gave my wife and I the freedom for my wife and I to move across country so we could attend a Bible college. Five years after entering school we moved to Scotland as missionaries. The ability to earn a living developing WordPress sites enabled us to completely realign our lives with our values and step into far more significance and meaning than we’ve ever known. We’ve since moved back to the States and primarily focus on ministry activities, though I still head up a side business providing services related to digital publishing, including WordPress development. |
