What inspired or motivated you to give this talk at WordCamp?
SEO is scary and confusing for a lot pf people and I aim to help people clear through all the clutter so they can understand what really matters in today’s world of search.
Do you have any advice or words of encouragement for those who are thinking about getting involved in the WordPress community?
Jump in head first! I was hesitant to engage with the community at first but I’m so thankful I did. My best friends and business associates were met at WordCamps and WordPress related conferences.
If you could make one improvement to WordPress today, what would it be?
My improvement would be community based and it would be focused on finding and reaching out to those massive amounts of WordPress users who do not attend WordCamps. There is so much they can learn, contribute, and be part of and I’d love to have them jump into the community.
Who do you most admire and why?
My maternal grandmother. She raised be from age 11-18 and was very instrumental in shaping the future me. She taught me about the importance of strong ethics, hard work, and just plain doing good to those around you. I would not be where I am today without the knowledge and love she provided.
What’s your favorite quote from a book or movie?
“Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.” – Maya Angelou
I love this quote because it applies to life in general, parenting, and even SEO and website development.
