This past September, I made my first trip to England (and to Europe, for that matter). I volunteered to help out the events team at my work with staffing for ThemeConf – an EU conference put on by a couple of my coworkers. This year the conference was held in Keswick – England’s Lake District.

NAB 2015
Last week, I helped out with staffing the WordPress.com booth at NMX/NAB in Las Vegas. This was a really large event with a wide range of exhibitors and attendees. This was my first time staffing an A8C-sponsored event and it was a very unique experience. Previously, I have only attended design/dev focused conferences and this event was not really web focused at all – it seemed to be more media and broadcasting.

I’m Joining Automattic!
Today is my last day at Cuker Agency. It has been a great three years working (and surfing) with a team of brilliant and fun people. I have learned a lot during my time at Cuker and will miss working with my friends there. While I am sad to leave today, I am very happy to announce that I have accepted a position with Automattic, Inc..
For those of you that are unfamiliar with Automattic, they are the company behind WordPress.com, Jetpack, Cloudup, Gravatar, and a bunch of other cool products that you may have seen around the web.
Starting tomorrow I will be joining the team as a Theme Wrangler on the Theme Division. I am extremely excited for this new opportunity to learn and improve my skills, both as a designer and a developer, while working on some very cool projects. I will get to work with some of the smartest and most talented people in the industry and build new friendships with people all over the world. This really is a dream job for me!
