What\u2019s been your best experience with WordPress?<\/h3>\n

I’ve met people all around the world because of WordPress that I can call my friends. I am really grateful for what WordPress brought to my life. Yes, it’s a great software but it also brings people together.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Tell us a bit about your WordCamp Halifax talk.<\/h3>\n

My talk is about selling your skills. Selling is hard and when you compete at the lower level, it is even tougher. That is why it is so important to have a plan to stand out and be recognized. Otherwise, you will think you need to under price yourself. I hate to see when people do that. The more they do it, the more they get the wrong customers for their business. Fortunately, it can be changed!<\/p>\n

What\u2019s your favourite thing about attending WordCamps?<\/h3>\n

For me, WordCamp is all about “meeting and learning”.<\/p>\n

Recommend one to three people in the WordPress world to follow on social media!<\/h3>\n

Carl Alexander is one of them. He is good at taking something complex and explaining it piece by piece until you get the whole picture.<\/p>\n

If you could have any superhero power, what would it be?<\/h3>\n

Freeze time. That way, I could enjoy even more what I’m doing with the awesome people that surround me. That first WordCamp Halifax would then be on for a lifetime!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
