I’ve been building websites since 1996. I began my career in the publishing industry and in 1999, started my own Digital Agency, Emerge Digital, which grew to about 25 people. At Emerge we worked with both startups and household name clients such as Cirque du Soleil, HBO, MillerCoors and Visa. We began embracing WordPress around 2006, beginning by building blogs for clients and evolving into using WP for fully-blown Content Management Systems. Emerge was acquired by Upshot (upshot.net) in 2009, where myself and my team continued using WordPress, deploying it for clients such as Omron, Hilton Worldwide, Subway and others.
In March of 2012, I left Upshot and founded GreyGoo Media with my business partner Vicente Opaso. Our focus is a mix of building Premium WP Themes, Plugin-ins and custom-built sites using WordPress as a CMS. We’ve built everything from turnkey WP sites using existing Themes, to highly-customized sites using advanced WP programming techniques. We love the platform and I’m eager to share my experiences with WordCamp attendees.
