After 4 \u00bd years in the agency world I\u2019m stepping out to start a company of one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These years have been amazing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve had the privilege of working alongside some of my closest friends, people who I admire and respect deeply. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And, in the midst of a number of what I consider \u201conce in a lifetime\u201d experiences I\u2019ve had the opportunity to develop a personal mission. This personal mission is driving me and is why I’m now stepping out on my own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My Mission<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I believe in the importance and power of WordPress as an \u201coperating system\u201d for the Open Web. I want to see a strong, healthy, diverse, and vibrant Open Web for our generation and the next. I see the success and future of WordPress as an important indicator of the health of the Open Web.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my work in the enterprise, and particularly with technology companies, I\u2019ve had the rare opportunity to connect with numerous individuals and organizations outside <\/em>the WordPress ecosystem, help them see the value of WordPress, and offer guidance on how to be a part of this ecosystem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I take off my agency hat, I\u2019m putting on a hat that I\u2019d best describe as the hat of an Evangelist. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My personal mission is to help technology companies figure out and invest in WordPress, the operating system of the Open Web.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I believe that if I\u2019m successful in doing so, then that\u2019s good for the companies I\u2019ve had the privilege of offering guidance to. And as they serve their customers better through WordPress and attract new customers to WordPress, that\u2019s good for WordPress and good for the Open Web.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So what\u2019s next?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m open for work again! I\u2019m looking for three types of engagements:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
