Paul Bearne is a senior WordPress full stack developer. He lives and works in Toronto Canada.
He discovered WordPress in 2006 when asked to explore the use of collaborative tools internally for a multinational corporation, setting up a 200+ multi-blog site using WPMU on IIS7. As part of this project, he created the Author Avatars plugin, which now has 10,000+ active installs.
From this point on, the community, the flexibility and the velocity of WordPress has made it the platform of choice for Paul’s work.
Paul specializes in creating highly performant scalable, accessible and SEO friendly code (plugins and themes) for large WordPress sites that are often multi-site, multi-language, VIP and/or e-commerce.
He has made core commits in 3.9, 4.0 and 4.2 and continues to support his plugin and the wider WordPress community.
