• Collaborations

    As a hybrid my work crosses a range of things, the one thing that stays true is the focus on experience – be that of themes, product or user interactions.

    Themes

    My roots are in themes, I found my way very early in WordPress into them. I was a Theme Wrangler in Automattic, part of the team that worked on the concept of block themes, theme.json and also I have worked on several default themes. I am also a maintainer of the theme component for WordPress. I was key member of _s whilst at Automattic also before the shift into block themes.

    Classic Themes

    I have worked still with classic and default themes, I was a sponsored contributor for 6 months focusing on this work. You can find out more about that here.

    Block Themes

    I have worked with a range of clients creating block themes. I also worked on the original project to make them happen within WordPress. I have worked with an agency helping them get to know themes, also with a legal application.
