Interview with Jessi Gurr

What inspired or motivated you to give this talk at WordCamp?

We’ve been working on getting more involved in community events, and enjoy helping other developers increase their skills.

Do you have any advice or words of encouragement for those who are thinking about getting involved in the WordPress community?

The best way to improve your WordPress skills is to dive in and start building a website! CSS, HTML, and PHP knowledge is essential to truly succeed in this industry, but there are plenty of resources available to help you become comfortable with these languages.

If you could make one improvement to WordPress today, what would it be?

When creating a new page, autofocus should be on the Title field, and not the Content field.

Who do you most admire and why?

Grace Hopper

What’s your favorite quote from a book or movie?
