What do you enjoy most about working in WordPress?
The community is the best around. Everyone that I have spoken to about both WPConnects and CertifyWP have been more than helpful to give feedback or spread the word. I have never been part of a community that is so genuinely helpful and supportive.
What do you love most about your Post Status membership?
The connections that I make every day. I also love the discourse in the channels.
What business/web/WordPress advice do you have for others in our industry?
The only advice I have is to keep being your amazing selves. WordPress is amazing because of the people involved inside of the community.
