    Bio

    WordPress theme and plugin developer since 2008, building for the block editor: Full Site Editing themes, Gutenberg blocks, starter sites and design tools.

    I make PageCore, a free plugin on WordPress.org, and PageCore FSE, its free companion theme. Together they give you designer-made starter sites, ready-made sections and site styles, built with core blocks and no page builder.

    I’ve also sold premium WordPress themes on ThemeForest since 2010: more than 14,000 sales and an author rating of 4.6 out of 5. Today I build with modern, AI-assisted workflows to ship faster without cutting quality.

    WordPress Origin Story

    My WordPress story started in 2008, building websites for clients. Freelancing and custom development taught me what site owners really need, and in 2010 I joined ThemeForest as a theme author. Commercial themes, plugins and design systems have been my work ever since.

    When Gutenberg and Full Site Editing arrived, I moved fully to the block editor. I wanted anyone to be able to start from a complete, designer-made website built with WordPress’s own blocks, with no page builder in between. That idea became PageCore, a free theme and plugin, and it’s where most of my days go now.
