WordPress

WordPress is open source software you can use to create a beautiful website, blog, or app. I have worked across every aspect of WordPress, from the community itself, product and even the mobile app.

I have been a Design Lead for 3 releases of WordPress (5.0, 5.4, 5.6) and involved in numerous others. I also led a default theme release and supported several others. I am a core committer and component maintainer.

Testing

As part of my role as design lead of the editor I built on my long-standing practice of triage and testing in the open source project. I had led for a while testing initiatives and saw testing tables and a range of things from interviews to tests taking place at community events. This happened from WordCamp US through to several days spent running user interviews in Tokyo. I also spent a lot of time gathering user feedback across various channels and even going on-site to observe editing at scale.
