Meet Christina

I am a Front End WordPress Developer, which basically means I build websites and like to play with code. I am not a Graphic Designer, Content Writer or Marketer, but I know awesome people who are!

I care about the job I do and the people I work with. Websites are built with a strong foundation to set you up well for your current needs and future requests you haven’t even thought of yet. I make sure your site is set up with best practices in a variety of areas many other website builders don’t necessarily think of.

Core values include community, knowledge and flexibility.

Community

We are better when we work together. What this means to me:

  • Collaborating with clients and other experts to deliver the best possible product
  • Volunteering at, speaking at and organizing Meetups and WordCamps
  • Mentoring new learners

Knowledge

I was always “the smart kid” at school, and now friends frequently rely on me to know things, or know how to find out. And I love it! I love learning new things, and sharing that knowledge with others (see Community). What this means to me:

  • Every project is an opportunity to learn something new
  • Problem solving is my idea of fun

Flexibility

Many years ago, I realized that I’m not best in a 9 to 5 job at a company with strict “because we said so” processes. And that was just the start of learning how important flexibility is. Being flexible with how and when I work allows me to give my best and be my best. What this means to me:

  • I can honour my wellbeing by sleeping, working and playing at times that work best for me
  • Emergencies in life (mine and yours) can and should be accommodated
  • Being able to volunteer for causes that matter to me

Some quick facts:

  • Purple is my favourite colour
  • I love to volunteer in the WordPress community
  • My current favourite pastime and self-care activity is colouring…I even started a blog to post my creations!
  • I’m a bit of a geek (in all the right ways!)
  • Honesty and accountability are incredibly important to me
  • Logic and problem solving are my kind of fun
  • I have never dyed my hair
