What inspired or motivated you to give this talk at WordCamp?
E-Commerce is a vast subject, and there is a lot of domain knowledge required to effectively help clients navigate all of the complexities and tools needed to be successful. My hope is that, after this talk, freelancers and agencies are more prepared when approaching e-Commerce topics with their customers.
Do you have any advice or words of encouragement for those who are thinking about getting involved in the WordPress community?
Dive in. Just commit to it and jump. We’re very fortunate to be working in a space where there is both demand and an excellent community.
If you could make one improvement to WordPress today, what would it be?
I’ve wanted to add art direction features to the media library for a while to make sure the focal point of an image is shown at all sizes and crops with minimal interaction. I just have to find the time to build it!
Who do you most admire and why?
Each and every person who has taken a risk and started something they can call their own. The creatives, developers, architects and dreamers. Jumping off that cliff isn’t easy, but the potential result is worth it.
What’s your favorite quote from a book or movie?
All your questions can be answered, if that is what you want. But once you learn your answers, you can never unlearn them.
