He's one of the ever growing field of professional software engineers making a living off of WordPress and the blogosphere.

For 17 years, he earned his living as a Borland Delphi programmer. His programming motto then was "If the user has to stop and think about what to do next, you have not done your job." And he applied that to source code too, "If you haven't written your code so that someone else can understand it, after two years, you won't understand it either."

Now he works primarily in PHP and has carried that diligence on through to his work for b5media. In addition to WordPress work, he also manages their forums and will be adding new and unique technologies to the b5 network.
