    Bio

    I am known for my copy-pasting code skills, an activity I have thrived (and failed) at since the late 1990s. I spent over a decade freelancing as a WordPress consultant before I joined Automattic. Bilbaíno and father of two girls. ///// Conocido por su gran habilidad copiando y pegando código, actividad en la que se ha desenvuelto con soltura desde 1997. Tras diez años freelanceando como consultor web y docente especializado en WordPress, actualmente trabaja para WordPress.com en Automattic. Bilbaíno y padre de dos niñas.
